ABSTRACT
Six children with solid and papillary epithelial neoplasm of the pancreas were studied retrospective manner. There were 2 boys and 4 girls in this series. The mean age at operation was 11 years (range, 8 to 13 years). There were three incidental abdominal masses, two nontender abdominal masses and one tender abdominal mass. The size ranged from 6.5x6.0cm to 10.5x8.0cm. Five tumors were located in the head of pancreas, whereas one tumor was in the tail of pancreas. On exploration, all patients had no local invasion or metastasis. All patients underwent complete resection, which included three pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy, two Whipple's operation and one distal pancreatectomy. All patients had the characteristic histologic pattern of a solid and papillary epithelial neoplasm of the pancreas. All patients are alive with a mean follow up of 5.0 years (range, 0.5 to 12.0 years) without recurrence. Compare to the adult, solid and papillary epithelial neoplasm of the pancreas in children had a slight higher incidence in male. We speculate that this tumor have the characteristic of low-grade malignancy. So complete resection is the treatment of choice for the neoplasm arising anywhere in the pancreas.
