Solid pseudo-papillary tumors are rare pancreatic tumors, which occur in females and are typically indolent neoplasms. However, atypical, aggressive variants can occur with locally advanced disease or metastases. They have characteristic imaging features, which vary according to size. This article provides a current update on the molecular biology, histopathology, clinico-radiological features, and management of these tumors.

Introduction: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a modern and minimally invasive technique to acquire diagnostic material from within the gastrointestinal tract, as well as from adjacent organs and structures, which can help in the diagnosis and staging of a variety of gastrointestinal malignancies, as well as for non-malignant conditions. Though well described in adults, there is limited literature on the diagnostic utility of EUS-FNA in paediatric patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and clinical utility of EUS-FNA in paediatric patients performed at our centre over the last 17 years.

A diabetic lady in her 40s was referred to surgical oncologists with epigastric pain associated with vomiting. Computed Tomography (CT) Abdomen with contrast demonstrated a mass arising from the head of the pancreas with the absence of dorsal pancreas, confirmed on magnetic resonance cholangio-pancreatography (MRCP). A core needle biopsy was done, and the tumor was revealed to be a solid pseudopapillary epithelial neoplasm.

Background: Majority of the pancreatic cancer patients present at an advanced stage and have poor 5 year survival rate. Thus, there is a need for early detection of pancreatic cancer with the initiation of the therapy.
Materials & Methods: This is a retrospective study including all the endoscopic ultrasound guided (EUS) guided pancreatic FNAs from 2016 to 2020.
