We present a 49-year-old woman requiring living donor liver transplantation after liver metastasis from a pancreatic solid pseudopapillary tumor. After identifying a pancreatic mass and liver lesions, she underwent extensive surgical resection. Pathology revealed a solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the head and body of the pancreas, extending into the peripancreatic soft tissues and confirmed to have spread to the liver. Subsequently, she underwent adjuvant chemotherapy and radiofrequency ablations of the new liver lesions. Despite immunotherapy and chemotherapy, there was a progression of the lesions. With interval growth of liver lesions, without evidence of extrahepatic disease, she underwent living donor liver transplantation.
Keywords: case report; liver transplantation; metastasis; solid pseudopapillary pancreatic neoplasm.
