Abstract

Solid pseudopapillary tumor is an unusual primary tumor of the pancreas with a low potential for malignancy and unknown cell origin, seen mostly in young women. Although it is discussed among pancreatic epithelial tumors, many cases do not express cytokeratin but show neuroendocrine differentiation. Three cases (2 female, 1 male, aged 24, 45 and 50 years, respectively) of solid pseudopapillary tumor localized in the pancreas are presented. All cases displayed a well-circumscribed tumor, with an average diameter of 6 cm and a red-brown colored, hemorrhagic, cystic cut surface. Microscopically they were encapsulated with large areas composed of thin papillary formations and solid areas focally. Tumor cells were dyscohesive with small, round- to-oval, central nuclei, and vacuolated, clear or eosinophilic cytoplasm without mitotic activity. NSE, vimentin, synaptophysin, ER, PR, Ki-67, S-100, Pan CK, a1-antitrypsin, a2-antichymotrypsin, and antibodies were used in the immunohistochemical study. Vimentin, synaptophysin, NSE, PR, and a1-antitrypsin showed expression in all cases, while Pan-CK was expressed in two cases. Ki-67 expression was below 1% in all cases. Morphologic features of solid pseudopapillary tumor may be confused with pancreatic endocrine neoplasm and ductal adenocarcinoma. All cases showed features of histocytic and neuroendocrine differentiation. Epithelial differentiation was identified in two cases. We conclude that immunohistochemistry is incapable of giving additional information for the diagnosis of solid pseudopapillary tumor due to different lines of differentiation of tumor cells. We believe that macroscopic and microscopic features (using hematoxylin and eosin stain) are more important for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of this tumor.

Özet

Solid pseudopapiller tümör pankreasın nadir görülen primer tümörlerindendir. Genellikle genç kadınlarda izlenen, hücre orijini tartışmalı, düşük malignite potansiyeli olan bir tümördür. Pankreatik epitelyal tümörler arasında bildirilmesine rağmen çoğu olgu, sitokeratin ekspresyonu içermez, ve nöroendok-rin diferansiyasyon gösterir. Bu çalışmada pankreasta lokalize, üç solid psuedopapiller tümör olgusu (iki kadın, bir erkek, sırasıyla 24, 45 ve 50 yaşlarında) sunulmaktadır. Olguların tümü makroskobik incelemede çevre pankreas dokusundan iyi sınırlanma gösteren, ortalama olarak 3 cm çaplı, kırmızı-kahve-renkli, kanamalı, kistik özelliktedir. Mikroskobik incelemede kalın kapsüllü, geniş alanlarda ince papiller yapılar, seyrek solid adalar oluşturan, yer yer kohezyon kaybı gösteren küçük, yuvarlak-oval, santral nükleuslu, vakuollü, berrak, eozinofilik sitoplazmalı, belirgin mitotik aktivite göstermeyen hücrelerden oluşan tumoral gelişim izlendi. İmmünhistokimya ile NSE, vimentin, sinaptofizin, ER, PR, Ki-67, S-100, PanCK, CEA, CA 19-9, alfa-1 antitripsin, alfa-1 antikimotripsin araştırıldı. Vimentin, sinaptofizin, NSE, PR, alfa-1 antitripsin tüm olgularda, Pan CK ise iki olguda pozitif olarak izlendi. Ki 67 indeksi tüm olgularda %1'in altında bulundu. Solid pseudopapiller tümör morfolojik özellikleriyle pankreatik endokrin neoplazi ve duktal adenokarsinomla karışabilmektedir. Olgularımızın tümünde histiyositik ve nöroendokrin differansiyasyonu destekleyen ekspresyonlar gözlenmiş, epitelyal köken iki olguda saptanmıştır. Tümörün farklı differansiyasyon gösteren hücrelerden oluşması nedeniyle immünhistokimyanın ayırıcı tanıda yardımcı olmadığı ve solid pseudopapiller tümörün makroskopik özellikleri ile tanı ve ayırıcı tanısının yapılmasının gerekli olduğunu düşünmekteyiz.
