Potential Role for Observation in Small Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm (SPN). Ann Surg Oncol 2023; 30:5105-5112.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPN) are rare tumors of the pancreas, typically affecting young women. Resection is the mainstay of treatment but is associated with significant morbidity and potential mortality. We explore the idea that small, localized SPN could be safely observed. METHODS This retrospective review of the Pancreas National Cancer Database from 2004 to 2018 identified SPN via histology code 8452. RESULTS A total of 994 SPNs were identified. Mean age was 36.8 ± 0.5 years, 84.9% (n = 844) were female, and most had a Charlson-Deyo Comorbidity Coefficient (CDCC) of 0-1 (96.6%, n = 960). Patients were most often staged clinically as cT2 (69.5%, n = 457) followed by cT3 (17.6%, n = 116), cT1 (11.2%, n = 74), and cT4 (1.7%, n = 11). Clinical lymph node and distant metastasis rates were 3.0 and 4.0%, respectively. Surgical resection was performed in 96.6% of patients (n = 960), most commonly partial pancreatectomy (44.3%) followed by pancreatoduodenectomy (31.3%) and total pancreatectomy (8.1%). In patients clinically staged as node (N0) and distant metastasis (M0) negative, occult pathologic lymph node involvement was found in 0% (n = 28) of patients with stage cT1 and 0.5% (n = 185) of patients with cT2 disease. The risk of occult nodal metastasis significantly increased to 8.9% (n = 61) for patients with cT3 disease. The risk further increased to 50% (n = 2) in patients with cT4 disease. CONCLUSIONS Herein, the specificity of excluding nodal involvement clinically is 99.5% in tumors ≤ 4 cm and 100% in tumors ≤ 2 cm. Therefore, there may be a role for close observation in patients with cT1N0 lesions to mitigate morbidity from major pancreatic resection.

Abstract
Introduction Frantz tumor or solid pseudopapillary neoplasm is a very rare tumor with low malignant potential, it constitutes 1-2 % of exocrine tumors of the pancreas. Description of the case We present the case of a 58-year-old female patient with a 4-month history of occasional abdominal pain in the epigastrium, the tomography detected a distal tumor of the pancreas. Is taken to distal pancreatectomy. Discussion It was first described by Franz in 1959 as a papillary tumor of the pancreas, in 2010 it was reclassified as a solid pseudopapillary tumor of low grade of malignancy. They appear in 8-16.6 % in patients before 13 years of age, in young women they present between the second and fourth decade of life. The treatment for excellence is surgical resection. Conclusion Pancreatic tumors represent a surgical challenge in any place of presentation.
