BackgroundSolid papillary neoplasm rare pancreatic neoplasm (1~3% of primary pancreatic tu-

mors) >80% : female, 85% : less than 30 years old With surgical complete excision 5 YSR : 95 % Aggressive variants : represent malignant degeneration in

an otherwise indolent tumor Surgical resection is indicated in all instances
