Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas: Unfolding an Intriguing Condition

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal malignant neoplasms, with a 1-year survival rate after diagnosis of 24%, and a 5-year survival rate of only 9%. While this illustrates the behavior of its main histologic type – ductal adenocarcinoma, there are other histologic subtypes of pancreatic cance...
