BLANCO FARAMINAN, Eduardo  y  ZAMORA SANTANA, Orlando. The solid tumor-the pancreas pseudopapillary as enigmatic entity. Rev Cubana Cir [online]. 2015, vol.54, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-2945.

Solid-pseudopapillary of the pancreas, also known as Frantz tumor, is a rare disease. It mainly affects non-Caucasian young women; it has solid and cystic components and represents a malignant neoplasm with generally encouraging prognosis. To this end, a literature review was made to update some key points on the subject. The following keywords were used: “solid-cystic turmor”, “papillary cystic tumor”, “pseudopapillary”, “solid and cystic”, “pancreas tumor”, “pancreatic tumor”, “pancreas neoplasm”, “pancreatic neoplasm”, “solid-pseudopapillary” and Frantz’ tumor”. The sections that we further developed were pathogenesis, molecular biology, pathology, clinical characteristics, imaging and diagnosis, treatment and finally prognosis. There are some poorly clarified in these tumors, so more research work is needed in pathogenesis, molecular biology and non-surgical treatment.

Palabras clave : Frantz’s tumor; pancreatic cyst; tumor; malignancy; neoplasm; pancreatic cancer; surgery; solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm; pancreas.
