  • Accessory spleen refers to the spleen tissue that exists outside of the normal spleen, with a similar structure to the main spleen and certain functions. Intrapancreatic accessory spleen (IPAS) completely enveloped by the pancreas has an incidence rate of only 2%, and it is easily misdiagnosed in clinical practice due to its atypical clinical symptoms and similar radiological features to pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, pancreatic solid pseudopapillary tumor, and other pancreatic space-occupying lesions. This article reports the clinical data of two patients with IPAS who were misdiagnosed as pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor and pancreatic solid pseudopapillary tumor, respectively, analyzes the reasons for misdiagnosis, and summarizes the experience in diagnosis and treatment, in order to improve the ability for the differential diagnosis of IPAS in clinical practice.
