Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms

Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Clinics of North America, 2008
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is characterized by enhanced mucus secretion. It is a benign or low-grade neoplasm associated with a dilated main pancreatic duct, patulous ampullary orifice, and abundant mucus secretion. Foci of aggressive cancer may arise and become invasive.

Pathology of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms

Langenbeck's Archives of Surgery, 2021
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) represent a unique opportunity to treat and prevent a curable neoplasm before it has the chance to progress to incurable cancer. This prospect, however, has to be balanced with the real risk of over treating patients with lesions that would, in fact, never progress during the life of the patient.Informed

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms

Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, 2015
Our understanding of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas has remarkably grown within the last decade; nonetheless there is still an ongoing controversy if the majority of these potentially malignant neoplasms need to be resected or if observation in a subset is well tolerated.Novel cyst fluid biomarkers, like Gnas mutations ...

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm

Current Treatment Options in Gastroenterology, 2002
Surgical resection is the treatment of choice for intraductal papillary mucinous tumor. In intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm, the extent of resection is determined by the extent of the disease. If, by pre- and intraoperative assessment, the disease appears localized, limited resection (pancreaticoduodenectomy or distal pancreatectomy) should be ...

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of pancreas

Khirurgiya. Zhurnal im. N.I. Pirogova, 2019
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is the most common cystic pancreatic tumor. There are 3 ductal types of this tumor depending on localization. Several histological subtypes determine clinical course and prognosis. The problems of diagnosis, surgical treatment and follow-up are reviewed in several guidelines.

Management of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms

Current Gastroenterology Reports, 2008
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) of the pancreas are being diagnosed with increasing frequency, probably due to the widespread use of cross-sectional imaging. The natural history of these tumors is still largely unknown. Several studies have shown topographical as well as biological differences between main duct and branch duct IPMNs ...

Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms

2019
With ever-increasing use of cross-sectional abdominal imaging, there has been a rise in the number of asymptomatic pancreatic cysts that are detected incidentally, the management of which poses a major issue. A large proportion of these asymptomatic pancreatic cysts are believed to comprise of branch duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs)

Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms

2013
After 30 years during which intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) were considered to be rare neoplasms of the pancreas, we now know that they represent a specific entity that is seen in daily clinical practice. This awareness has highlighted the need for an improved understanding of pancreatic diseases.
