ABSTRACT
Solid pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas are usually described as rare lesionswith low malignant potential and unpredictable behavior. The prognosis may be favorableeven with local or distant dissemination. Despite the steady increase of cases diagnosed,the pathogenesis of this neoplasm remains unclear. We present a case of an incidentaltumor discovered because of an acute abdomen in a postpartum woman without previousevidence of a tumor during the pregnancy.
