Abstract
The pseudopapillary and solid tumor of the pancreas (TPPSP) is characterized by a malignant potential attenuated with a low risk of local extension and rare metastatic evolution. We report an observation of TPPSP, in a 62-year-old man, revealed by chronic epigastralgia. The diagnosis of cystic tumor was made on the abdominal CT scan. Surgical treatment consisted of a left splenopancreatectomy. The histological study confirmed the diagnosis of TPPSP.
