Pancreatitis in pediatric patients with pancreatic solid pseudopapillary neoplasms- a single center experience

Video Published 2026-04-13 Updated 2026-04-17

Timestops (3)

Topic Overview

A single-center study of 10 adolescent girls with solid pseudopapillary neoplasms of the pancreas found that 3 developed acute recurrent or chronic pancreatitis after surgical resection. All patients who developed ongoing pancreatitis had genetic risk factors (CFTR gene variants) or anatomic variants (pancreas divisum), and some required completion pancreatectomy. The discussion emphasizes the importance of identifying genetic and anatomic risk factors before surgery in this population.

Key Takeaways

  • 30% of adolescents with resected pancreatic SPNs developed recurrent/chronic pancreatitis postoperatively in this series. (0:22)
  • All post-resection pancreatitis cases had genetic (CFTR variants) or anatomic (pancreas divisum) risk factors present. (0:32)
  • Preoperative genetic and anatomic screening may alter surgical planning for pediatric pancreatic SPN patients. (0:48)
  • Some patients with post-SPN resection pancreatitis required completion pancreatectomy for symptom control. (0:40)
