Safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided ethanol ablation for pancreatic cystic lesions: A single-center experience of 214 patients.

TL;DR: EUS-EA is a safe procedure with a very low rate of severe AEs and it seems possible to predict the AEs according to the features of the procedure and PCLs, as well as finding predictive factors for adverse event (AE) prediction.

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas: a clinical challenge.

TL;DR: The incidental detection rate of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) has significantly increased, but little is known about the natural history of these tumors and their optimal management and appropriate follow-up are still unclear.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endoscopic ultrasound in the diagnosis of pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms

TL;DR: Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) offers the highest resolution of the pancreas and can aid in the differential diagnosis, classification and differentiation between benign and malignant tumors.

The diagnostic role of CT, MRI/MRCP, PET/CT, EUS and DWI in the differentiation of benign and malignant IPMN: A meta-analysis

TL;DR: PET/CT showed the highest AUC and the overall diagnostic accuracy results support the use of MRI/MRCP, PET/CT interchangeably as a first-line examination in the diagnosis of malignant IPMN.

International consensus guidelines for management of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms and mucinous cystic neoplasms of the pancreas.

TL;DR: Ovarian-type stroma has been proposed as a requisite to distinguish MCN from IPMN, and some other distinct features to characterize IPMN and MCN have been identified, but there remain ambiguities between the two diseases.
