Abstract

SUMMARY
Solid pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas are rare in children. We present a 7-year-old girl with clinical presentation of intermittent abdominal pain after meal, no vomiting for 6 months. The abdominal ultrasound and computed tomography showed a mass that measuring 6,5x6,8x7 cm at the epigastric area. Total resection of the tumor were performed. The definite diagnosis was made by the post-operation pathological finding.
