In total, 595 cases were reported in the recent 4 years. The disease was more common in young female, with a 1: 10 male female ratio. Their ages ranged from 8 to 67 years, 26.1 years on average. The chief symptoms were abdominal pain and discomfort. Diagnosis depended on postoperative pathological and immunohistochemical analysis. Tumors were mainly located in pancreas. All tumors were treated by surgical resection and prognosis was good. Conclusion SPTP is not rare. Definite diagnosis of SPTP depends on postoperative pathological and immunohistochemical study.
