Objective: To report an infrequent case of pancreatic pseudopapillary solid-cyst tumor, known as Frantz tumor, discovered after blunt abdominal trauma, and to carry out a review of the literature.
Background: Frantz's tumor is a very uncommon low-grade malignant papillary-cystic neoplasm of the pancreas that is relatively frequent in young black women and was first described by Frantz in 1959.
Case Report: We present the case of a 15-years-old female patient who, 24 h after blunt abdominal trauma, came to the emergency room with intense abdominal and atypical pain and a palpable mass in the left upper quadrant.
