Spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy following neoadjuvant chemotherapy for papillary solid and cystic neoplasm of pancreas. Indian Journal of Gastroenterology. 2004 Sep-Oct; 23(5): 188-9http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/64113Papillary solid and cystic neoplasm (PSCN) is a rare neoplasm of the pancreas with low-grade malignant potential and favorable prognosis. We report an 18-year-old girl with PSCN presenting with advanced disease. The tumor regressed with six cycles of gemcitabine and cisplantin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy; spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy was then done. She is disease-free at 13 months' follow-up.engAbdominal Pain --diagnosisAdolescentAntineoplastic Combined Chemotherapy Protocols --administration & dosageCarcinoma, Papillary --diagnosisCombined Modality TherapyCystadenoma, Papillary --diagnosisFemaleFollow-Up StudiesHumansNeoadjuvant TherapyPancreatectomy --methodsPancreatic Neoplasms --drug therapyRisk AssessmentSpleenTomography, X-Ray ComputedTreatment OutcomeCase Reports
