Core Tip	Solid pseudopapillary tumor (SPT) of the pancreas is a rare neoplasm. Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) and open distal pancreatectomy (ODP) for SPT have not previously been compared. We compared the short-term and long-term outcomes among patients undergoing either LDP or ODP for SPT. Our results showed that LDP for SPT had the advantages of minimally invasive surgery, less intraoperative blood loss, and rapid recovery. The mortality, morbidity, oncological outcome, and long-term outcome of LDP were similar to those of open surgery.
