A Rare Case of Asymptomatic Solid Pseudopapillary Tumor of the Pancreas in a Pregnant Woman: A Conservative Management Approach

Solid pseudopapillary tumors (SPT) of the pancreas are considered rare pancreatic neoplasms with low-grade malignant potential and a favorable outcome after surgical resection. They are mainly observed in young women in their second and third decades of life. The association between SPT and pregnancy is exceptional. To the best of our knowledge, only a few cases of SPT discovered and resected during pregnancy have been reported in the English literature. In this case report, we discuss the clinical findings of a 19-year-old Moroccan woman who presented with an asymptomatic SPT during the 12th week of pregnancy and share our experience managing this situation during pregnancy.
