Role of abdominal ultrasound for the surveillance follow-up of pancreatic cystic neoplasms: a cost-effective safe alternative to the routine use of magnetic resonance imaging

TL;DR: In patients with non-surgical PCN at the time of diagnosis, US surveillance could be a safe complementary approach to MRI, delaying and reducing the numbers of second level examinations and therefore reducing the costs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic unrelatedness of co-occurring pancreatic adenocarcinomas and IPMNs challenges current views of clinical management

TL;DR: Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) represent the most common cystic preinvasive lesion in the pancreas, which can progress to invasive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
Journal ArticleDOI

Factors Associated With the Risk of Progression of Low-Risk Branch-Duct Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms.

TL;DR: Results of this study suggest that cyst size alone is not a reliable factor to estimate progression risk, but along with other readily available data, size is helpful for planning personalized surveillance of BD-IPMNs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diabetes mellitus is associated with unfavorable pathologic features, increased postoperative mortality, and worse long-term survival in resected pancreatic cancer

TL;DR: DM is a common comorbidity in PDAC and is associated with unfavorable pathology, as well as worse postoperative and oncologic outcomes, which is more pronounced in patients who undergo resection following neoadjuvant treatment.

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.

Diagnosis of pancreatic cystic neoplasms: a report of the cooperative pancreatic cyst study.

TL;DR: Of tested markers, cyst fluid CEA is the most accurate test available for the diagnosis of mucinous cystic lesions of the pancreas.

Increased Risk of Cancer in the Peutz–Jeghers Syndrome

TL;DR: It is suggested that patients with the Peutz-Jeghers syndrome have an increased risk for the development of cancer at gastrointestinal and nongastrointestinal sites.
