...) and neoplastic tumors. Common cystic pancreatic neoplasms include serous cystadenomas, mucinous cystic neoplasms, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, and solid pseudopapillary tumors. These cystic pancreatic neoplasms may have typical morphology, but at times show overlapping imaging features on cross...

...Aadhithya Raman; Anne Marie Lennon Summary Pancreatic cysts are common, and are identified in 2-13% of individuals undergoing cross-sectional imaging. Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) and mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCNs) are pancreatic cysts which are precursors to pancreatic...

... imaging (MRI). The most difficult aspects of differential diagnosis are: intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) versus chronic pancreatitis; unifocal IPMN versus serous cystic neoplasm (SCN); macrocystic SCN versus mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN); cystic neuroendocrine tumors versus MCN; solid...

...%. The focus of recent research was the malignant potential of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) with the aim of establishing clinical pathways addressing risk of malignancy, age and comorbidity, treatment-related morbidity and mortality as well as cost-effectiveness of treatment and surveillance...

... diagnoses encountered in a tertiary center of pancreatology and to guide the reader as how to reach the correct strategy and diagnosis in these situations. Results: We identified eight clinically difficult situations: i) chronic pancreatitis versus intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms, ii) serous versus...

... of these lesions display small branch-duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (BD-IPMNs) of the pancreas. Even though a number of large clinical series have been published, many uncertainties remain with regard to this entity of mucinous cystic neoplasms. Methods: Systematic literature review. Results: Main...

...Thilo Hackert; Stefan Fritz; Markus W. Büchler Background: Surgical treatment of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) requires a differentiated approach regarding indications and extent of resection. Methods: The review summarizes the current literature on indication, timing...
