Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas is rarely encountered in clinical practice. It is a tumor with a good prognosis and overall curative rates. It primarily affects young females in their twenties. It has characteristic imaging appearances, but a definite diagnosis requires histopathological examination. The treatment goal of solid pseudopapillary neoplasm is almost always curative and aims for complete resection of the mass. Here, we present 2 cases of this rare neoplasm. The first case was managed by laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy, while the second underwent a Whipple procedure for pancreatic head involvement.
