A case of solid pseudopapillary neoplasm preoperatively diagnosed as left renal tumor

Abstract

Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm is a rare disease that accounts for approximately 2% of pancreatic neoplasms, and the treatment is complete resection of the tumor. We experienced a case preoperatively diagnosed as a left renal tumor with pancreatic invasion and histologically diagnosed with solid pseudopapillary neoplasm of the pancreas. The purpose of this case report is to illustrate the importance of differentiating solid pseudopapillary neoplasm in patients who present a left renal tumor with pancreatic invasion.
