Abstract
Aim: This study aimed to determine the level of knowledge of nursing students about the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV).
Material and Methods: This descriptive type of research was conducted with 305 students studying at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Nursing between May 2022 and September 2022. The study data were collected face-to-face by the researchers using a Descriptive Information Form and the HPV Knowledge Scale. In addition to numbers, percentages, means, and standard deviations, independent samples t-test, one-way ANOVA, simple regression analysis, and Least Significant Difference were used in the analysis of the data.
Results: It was determined that the mean score of the HPV Knowledge Scale of the nursing students was 7.99±7.24, and the mean scores of the sub-scales were 5.38±4.79 for the General HPV Knowledge, 0.51±0.95 for the Knowledge of HPV Vaccination Program. It was found that most of the students had knowledge about sexually transmitted disease, but this knowledge was insufficient.
Discussion: This study reveals that the knowledge levels of nursing students and other university students about HPV and infectious diseases are insufficient.

Abstract
Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is an uncommon neoplasm of the pancreas. Extrapancreatic cases of SPN are exceedingly rare. To the best of our knowledge, the primary SPN of the ovary was reported in only 13 cases. We report a case located in the right ovary in a 30-year-old woman, morphologically and immunophenotypically identical to pancreatic SPN. The tumor is presented because of its rarity, and our case is the second case with the longest follow-up period, treated with cystectomy, and the second case who gave birth after treatment.
