Abstract

This report concerns a 9-year-old girl with a nonfunctioning pancreatic tumor presented as an abdominal mass. An encapsulated tumor, measuring approximately 8 x 7 cm, was found during operation, and debulking surgery was done. Histopathologic studies proved that it was a pancreatic tumor, compatible with non-functioning islet cell tumors. She displayed neither clinical picture of jaundice, nor excessive hormonal manifestations such as diarrhea or flushing. No evidence would suggest its association with multiple endocrine neoplasia type I. To our knowledge, it has never been reported in children in Taiwan.
