Case Rep Oncol. 2015 Oct 6;8(3):405-8. doi: 10.1159/000441022. eCollection 2015 Sep-Dec.

Abstract

We report the case of a Caucasian woman, operated on for a solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas in 2009, who recurred 4 years later with multiple liver metastases requiring liver resection. This disease is infrequent, particularly among the Caucasian population, and metastatic evolution is very rare.

Keywords: Caucasian woman; Metastatic evolution; Pancreas; Solid pseudopapillary tumor.
