Abstract
Primary pancreatic tumors in children are rare with an overall age-adjusted incidence of 0.018 new cases per 100,000 pediatric patients. The most prevalent histologic type is the solid pseudopapillary neoplasm followed by pancreatoblastoma. This manuscript describes relevant imaging modalities and presents consensus-based recommendations for imaging at diagnosis and follow up.
