Core Tip	Desmoid tumors (DTs) are rare, representing approximately 0.03% of all tumors and 3% of soft tissues tumors. They are nonmetastatic and locally aggressive, with a high local recurrence rate. The pancreas is an extremely rare location for DTs. Moreover, pancreatic desmoids resembling solid cystic tumors are the rarest form of DTs. We report a 17-year-old patient presenting with a sporadic cystic DT of the pancreas, and subsequent disease management with central pancreatectomy. We report the case for its rarity and emphasize disease management by concerted application of clinical, pathological, radiological and immunohistochemical analyses. Associated English-language literature is also reviewed and summarized.
