Precursor Epithelial Subtypes of Adenocarcinoma Arising from Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms (A-IPMN): Clinicopathological Features, Recurrence and Response to Adjuvant Chemotherapy. Ann Surg Oncol 2024; 31:7023-7032. [PMID: 38961040 PMCID: PMC11413116 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-024-15677-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/10/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinico-oncological outcomes of precursor epithelial subtypes of adenocarcinoma arising from intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (A-IPMN) are limited to small cohort studies. Differences in recurrence patterns and response to adjuvant chemotherapy between A-IPMN subtypes are unknown. METHODS Clincopathological features, recurrence patterns and long-term outcomes of patients undergoing pancreatic resection (2010-2020) for A-IPMN were reported from 18 academic pancreatic centres worldwide. Precursor epithelial subtype groups were compared using uni- and multivariate analysis. RESULTS In total, 297 patients were included (median age, 70 years; male, 78.9%), including 54 (18.2%) gastric, 111 (37.3%) pancreatobiliary, 80 (26.9%) intestinal and 52 (17.5%) mixed subtypes. Gastric, pancreaticobiliary and mixed subtypes had comparable clinicopathological features, yet the outcomes were significantly less favourable than the intestinal subtype. The median time to recurrence in gastric, pancreatobiliary, intestinal and mixed subtypes were 32, 30, 61 and 33 months. Gastric and pancreatobiliary subtypes had worse overall recurrence (p = 0.048 and p = 0.049, respectively) compared with the intestinal subtype but gastric and pancreatobiliary subtypes had comparable outcomes. Adjuvant chemotherapy was associated with improved survival in the pancreatobiliary subtype (p = 0.049) but not gastric (p = 0.992), intestinal (p = 0.852) or mixed subtypes (p = 0.723). In multivariate survival analysis, adjuvant chemotherapy was associated with a lower likelihood of death in pancreatobiliary subtype, albeit with borderline significance [hazard ratio (HR) 0.56; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.31-1.01; p = 0.058]. CONCLUSIONS Gastric, pancreatobiliary and mixed subtypes have comparable recurrence and survival outcomes, which are inferior to the more indolent intestinal subtype. Pancreatobiliary subtype may respond to adjuvant chemotherapy and further research is warranted to determine the most appropriate adjuvant chemotherapy regimens for each subtype.

Comprehensive Characterization of Intraductal Oncocytic Papillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas: A Systematic and Critical Review. Mod Pathol 2024; 37:100554. [PMID: 38950698 DOI: 10.1016/j.modpat.2024.100554] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 06/20/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024]
Abstract
Intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm (IOPN) of the pancreas is a recently recognized pancreatic tumor. Here, we aimed to determine its most essential features with the systematic review tool. PubMed, Scopus, and Embase were searched for studies reporting data on pancreatic IOPN. The clinicopathologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular data were extracted and summarized. Then, a comparative analysis of the molecular alterations of IOPN with those of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm from reference cohorts (including The Cancer Genome Atlas) was conducted. The key findings from 414 IOPNs were as follows: 1) The male-to-female ratio was 1.5:1. Pancreatic head was the most common site (131/237; 55.3%), but a diffuse tumor extension involving more than one pancreatic segment was described in about 1 out of 5 cases (49/237; 20.6%). The mean size was 45.5 mm. An associated invasive carcinoma was present in 50% of cases (168/336). In those cases, most tumors were pT1 or pT2 and pN0 (>80%), and vascular invasion was uncommon (20.6%). Regarding survival, more than 90% of patients were alive after surgical resection. 2) Immunohistochemical and molecular features were as follows. The most commonly expressed mucins were MUC5AC (110/112; 98.2%) and MUC6 (78/84; 92.8%). Compared with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm, the classic pancreatic drivers KRAS, TP53, CDKN2A, SMAD4, and GNAS were less altered in IOPN (P < .01). Moreover, fusions involving PRKACA or PRKACB gene were detected in all of the 68 cases examined, with PRKACB::ATP1B1 being the most common (27/68 cases; 39.7%). These genomic events emerged as an entity-defining molecular alteration of IOPN (P < .01). Thus, such fusions represent a promising biomarker for diagnostic purposes. Recent evidence also suggests their role in influencing the acquisition of oncocytic morphology. IOPN is a distinct pancreatic neoplasm with specific clinicopathologic and molecular features. Considering the clinical or prognostic implications, its recognition is essential for pathologists and, ultimately, patients' management.

Abstract
CONTEXT.— Tumoral (grossly visible) intraductal neoplasms of the bile ducts are still being characterized. OBJECTIVE.— To investigate their morphologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular features. DESIGN.— Forty-one cases were classified as gastric-, intestinal-, pancreatobiliary-type intraductal papillary neoplasm (IPN), intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm (IOPN), or intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) on the basis of histology. All neoplasms were subjected to targeted next-generation sequencing. RESULTS.— The mean age at diagnosis was 69 years (42-81 years); male to female ratio was 1.3. Most neoplasms (n = 23, 56%) were extrahepatic/large (mean size, 4.6 cm). The majority (n = 32, 78%) contained high-grade dysplasia, and 68% (n = 28) revealed invasion. All gastric-type IPNs (n = 9) and most ITPNs/IOPNs showed consistent colabeling for CK7/MUC6, which was less common among others (P = .004). Intestinal-type IPNs (n = 5) showed higher rates of CK20 expression than others (P < .001). Overall, the most commonly mutated genes included TP53 and APC, while copy number variants affected ELF3 and CDKN2A/B. All gastric-type IPNs contained an alteration affecting the Wnt signaling pathway; 7 of 9 (78%) showed aberrations in the MAPK pathway. Mutations in APC and KRAS were common in gastric-type IPNs as compared with others (P = .01 for both). SMAD4 was more frequently mutated in intestinal-type IPNs (P = .02). Pancreatobiliary-type IPNs (n = 14) exhibited frequent alterations in tumor suppressor genes including TP53, CDKN2A/B, and ARID2 (P = .04, P = .01 and P = .002, respectively). Of 6 IOPNs analyzed, 3 (50%) revealed ATP1B1-PRKACB fusion. ITPNs (n = 6) showed relatively few recurrent genetic aberrations. Follow-up information was available for 38 patients (median, 58.5 months). The ratio of disease-related deaths was higher for the cases with invasion (56% versus 10%). CONCLUSIONS.— Tumoral intraductal neoplasms of the bile ducts, similar to their counterparts in the pancreas, are morphologically and genetically heterogeneous.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are a cystic precursor to pancreatic cancer. IPMNs deemed clinically to be at high-risk for malignant progression are frequently treated with surgical resection, and pathological examination of the pancreatectomy specimen is a key component of the clinical care of IPMN patients. METHODS Systematic literature reviews were conducted around eight topics of clinical relevance in the examination of pathological specimens in patients undergoing resection of IPMN. RESULTS This review provides updated perspectives on morphological subtyping of IPMNs, classification of intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasms, nomenclature for high-grade dysplasia, assessment of T stage, distinction of carcinoma associated or concomitant with IPMN, role of molecular assessment of IPMN tissue, role of intraoperative assessment by frozen section, and preoperative evaluation of cyst fluid cytology. CONCLUSIONS This analysis provides the foundation for data-driven approaches to several challenging issues in the pathology of IPMNs.

Abstract
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs), often found incidentally, are potentially malignant cystic tumors of the pancreas. Due to the precancerous nature, IPMNs lacking malignant features should be kept on surveillance. The follow-up relies on magnetic resonance imaging, which has a limited accuracy to define the high-risk patients. New diagnostic methods are thus needed to recognize IPMNs with malignant potential. Here, aberrantly expressed glycans constitute a promising new area of research. We compared the N-glycan profiles of non-invasive IPMN tissues (n = 10) and invasive IPMN tissues (n = 10) to those of non-neoplastic pancreatic controls (n = 5) by matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry. Both IPMN subgroups showed increased abundance of neutral composition H4N4 and decrease in H3N5F1, increase in sialylation, and decrease in sulfation, as compared to the controls. Furthermore, invasive IPMN showed an increase in terminal N-acetylhexosamine containing structure H4N5, and increase in acidic complex-type glycans, but decrease in their complex fucosylation and sulfation, as compared to the controls. In conclusion, the N-glycan profiles differed between healthy pancreatic tissue and non-invasive and invasive IPMNs. The unique glycans expressed in invasive IPMNs may offer interesting new options for diagnostics.

Abstract
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) and mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCNs) are all considered "Pancreatic cystic neoplasms (PCNs)" and show a varying risk of developing into pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). These lesions display different molecular characteristics, mutations, and clinical manifestations. A lack of detailed understanding of PCN subtype characteristics and their molecular mechanisms limits the development of efficient diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies for these lesions. Proper in vivo mouse models that mimic human PCNs are also needed to study the molecular mechanisms and for therapeutic testing. A comprehensive understanding of the current status of PCN biology, mechanisms, current diagnostic methods, and therapies will help in the early detection and proper management of patients with these lesions and PDAC. This review aims to describe all these aspects of PCNs, specifically IPMNs, by describing the future perspectives.

Abstract
Pancreatic cystic lesions are increasingly detected in cross-sectional imaging. Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is a mucin-producing subtype of the pancreatic cyst lesions arising from the pancreatic duct system. IPMN is a potential precursor of pancreatic cancer. The transformation of IPMN in pancreatic cancer is progressive and requires the occurrence of low-grade dysplasia, high-grade dysplasia, and ultimately invasive cancer. Jaundice, enhancing mural nodule >5 mm, main pancreatic duct diameter >10 mm, and positive cytology for high-grade dysplasia are considered high-risk stigmata of malignancy. While increased levels of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) (>37 U/mL), main pancreatic duct diameter 5-9.9 mm, cyst diameter >40 mm, enhancing mural nodules <5 mm, IPMN-induced acute pancreatitis, new onset of diabetes, cyst grow-rate >5 mm/year are considered worrisome features of malignancy. However, cross-sectional imaging is often inadequate in the prediction of high-grade dysplasia and invasive cancer. Several studies evaluated the role of humoral and intra-cystic biomarkers in the prediction of malignancy in IPMN. Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), CA 19-9, intra-cystic CEA, intra-cystic glucose, and cystic fluid cytology are widely used in clinical practice to distinguish between mucinous and non-mucinous cysts and to predict the presence of invasive cancer. Other biomarkers such as cystic fluid DNA sequencing, microRNA (mi-RNA), circulating microvesicles, and liquid biopsy are the new options for the mini-invasive diagnosis of degenerated IPMN. The aim of this study is to review the literature to assess the role of humoral and intracystic biomarkers in the prediction of advanced IPMN with high-grade dysplasia or invasive carcinoma.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to determine the preoperative clinicophysiological and postoperative clinicopathological predictors of malignancy in patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN). METHODS This was a retrospective observational study. We included 121 patients (73 men and 48 women; mean age: 68.7 years) who had undergone pancreatic resection for IPMN between 2007 and 2018. These patients were grouped into invasive carcinoma (IPMN-INV, N = 21) and low/high-grade IPMN (IPMN-LG/HG, N = 100) groups. Univariate and multivariate analyses of clinicophysiological parameters were carried out. These parameters were also compared between the IPMN-INV/HG (N = 53) and IPMN-LG (N = 68) groups. Survival analyses according to macroscopic type and IPMN subtypes were performed. RESULTS On univariate analysis, age (p = 0.038), carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 (p < 0.001), IPMN macroscopic type (p = 0.001), IPMN subtype (p < 0.001), pancreatic duct diameter (p < 0.001), and mural nodule (p = 0.042), between IPMN-INV and IPMN-LG/HG were found to be significant prognostic factors of malignancy. CA 19-9 was found to be an independent prognostic factor of IPMN malignancy on multivariate analysis (p = 0.035). The 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of the IPMN-INV and IPMN-LG/HG groups were 94.4/100%, 94.4/100%, and 67.2/100%, respectively. The OS rate in the IPMN-LG/HG group was significantly higher than that in the IPMN-INV group (p < 0.001). On univariate analysis, platelet (p = 0.043), CA 19-9 (p = 0.039), prognostic nutritional index (p = 0.034), platelet/lymphocyte ratio (p = 0.01), IPMN macroscopic type (p < 0.001), IPMN subtype (p < 0.001), pancreatic duct diameter (p = 0.036), and mural nodule (p = 0.032) between IPMN-INV/HG and IPMN-LG were found to be significant prognostic factors of malignancy. On multivariate analysis, CA 19-9 was found to be an independent prognostic factor (p = 0.042) between IPMN-INV/HG and IPMN-LG of malignancy. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS rates of the IPMN-INV/HG and IPMN-LG groups were 97.9/100%, 97.9/100%, and 82.6/100%, respectively. The OS rate was significantly higher in the IPMN-LG group than in the IPMN-INV/HG group (p = 0.03). No significant differences in survival were observed in patients with macroscopic tumors (p= 0.544). CONCLUSION CA 19-9 is an independent invasive malignancy predictor of IPMN.

Abstract
Background To explore the impact of distant metastases on cancer-specific survival in patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) with associated invasive carcinoma and identify the risk factor of distant metastases in IPMN with associated invasive carcinoma. Methods Patients with IPMN with associated invasive carcinoma between 2010 and 2015 were retrospectively selected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. The survival analyses were assessed by Kaplan-Meier analyses and log-rank test. The impact of distant metastases was evaluated by Cox regression model and the risk factors of distant metastases were identified by logistic regression analyses, respectively. Results The median cancer-specific survival time of patients with no metastases, isolated liver, isolated lung, and multiple site metastases were 19 months, 4 months, 7 months, and 3 months, respectively. In patients with isolated liver metastases, multivariate analysis after adjustment indicated that chemotherapy (Hazard Ratio [HR]=0.351, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.256-0.481, P<0.001) was a protective prognostic factor for cancer-specific survival (CSS) in patients with isolated liver metastases. In isolated lung metastases subgroup, old age (HR=1.715, 95% CI=1.037-2.838, P=0.036) and chemotherapy (HR=0.242, 95% CI=0.134-0.435, P<0.001) were related to CSS in multivariable Cox regression analysis(P<0.05). Tumor located in the pancreatic body/tail (HR=2.239, 95% CI=1.140-4.400, P=0.019) and chemotherapy (HR=0.191, 95% CI=0.108-0.340, P<0.001) were independent prognostic factors for CSS in patients with multiple metastases. Finally, a nomogram was constructed for cancer-specific survival and the predicted C-index was 0.780 (95% CI=0.762-0.798). Conclusion The liver is the most common site of distant metastases in IPMN with associated invasive carcinoma. Tumor located in the pancreatic body/tail and chemotherapy are independent prognostic factors for CSS in patients with multiple metastases. Further, tumor located in body/tail is identified as a risk factor of distant metastases.

Pathol Res Pract 2020; 217:153312.

Abstract
Among pancreatic intraductal papillary neoplasms, gastric, intestinal, and pancreatobiliary intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN), intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm (IOPN), and intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN) have been defined, differing regarding association with invasive carcinoma and prognosis. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) can help in the distinction of these neoplasms, but a proportion is unclassifiable using recommended markers. Hence, additional markers useful for the typing of pancreatic intraductal papillary neoplasms are needed. The reported frequencies of the different types of IPMNs in surgical series vary to some extent, and such data based on Danish patients are currently lacking. Besides, the role of mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency in these neoplasms has not been fully elucidated. We aimed to evaluate the frequency of different types of pancreatic intraductal papillary neoplasms in a Danish cohort. Furthermore, we aimed to examine the utility of CD117, CK17, CK20, MUC4, and villin as markers for their distinction, in addition to the recommended markers MUC1, MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC6 and CDX2, and to evaluate the frequency of MMR deficiency. We typed 40 consecutively resected pancreatic intraductal papillary neoplasms according to the WHO criteria from 2019. IHC for CD117, CDX2, CK17, CK20, MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, MUC1 (H23), MUC1 (Ma695), MUC2, MUC4, MUC5AC, MUC6, PMS2, and villin was performed and evaluated using a five-tiered semiquantitative scale. A subset of the tumours was examined with PCR for microsatellite instability (MSI). Most tumours were intestinal (40 %) and gastric (40 %) IPMNs, followed by pancreatobiliary (17 %) IPMNs and IOPN (3 %). All cases were MMR proficient. We found a higher expression of MUC4, CK20 and villin in intestinal compared to gastric IPMNs (p < 0.01, p < 0.001 and p < 0.001). MUC4 was more strongly expressed in intestinal compared to pancreatobiliary IPMNs, while the opposite was found for CK17 (p < 0.05 and p < 0.05). IOPN showed strong CD117 expression (score 4), while all gastric IPMNs were negative and 50 % and 29 % of intestinal and pancreatobiliary IPMNs only showed weak expression (score 1). Our data suggest that CK20, MUC4 and villin may aid in the identification of intestinal IPMNs, while CK17 and CD117 may aid in the identification of pancreatobiliary IPMNs and IOPN, in some cases. However, additional studies evaluating these markers in pancreatic intraductal papillary neoplasms are needed.

A mixed-type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the pancreas with a histologic combination of gastric and pancreatobiliary subtypes in a 70-year-old woman: a case report. J Med Case Rep 2020; 14:146. [PMID: 32900376 PMCID: PMC7487660 DOI: 10.1186/s13256-020-02464-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2020] [Accepted: 07/27/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms are rare papillary pancreatic neoplasms arising from major pancreatic ducts, characterized by duct dilation and mucin secretion. They comprise approximately 1% of all exocrine neoplasms and are classified according to their anatomical sites into main duct-type, branch duct-type, and mixed-type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms. Histological examination plays a crucial role in distinguishing and classifying intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms into gastric, intestinal, pancreatobiliary, and oncocytic subtypes. Case presentation We present the case of a 70-year-old Syrian woman who was admitted to our hospital due to an intermittent epigastric pain accompanied by diarrhea and weight loss with a recent diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. Following clinical, laboratory, and radiological examination, distal pancreatectomy involving the body and the tail of the pancreas was performed. Interestingly, histological examination of the resected specimens revealed the diagnosis of a mixed-type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm with a unique combination of gastric and pancreatobiliary subtypes. Conclusion To the best of our knowledge, the combination of multiple histological subtypes of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms has been recorded in a few studies with reference to the challenging histological detection. Herein, we report a rare case with a significant histological combination, highlighting the difficulties in differential diagnosis due to the absence of ancillary techniques, with a brief review on diagnostic methods, histological characteristics and surgical recommendations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are few effective tools to predict survival in patients with invasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas.
AIM To develop comprehensive nomograms to individually estimate the survival outcome of patients with invasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas.
METHODS Data of 1219 patients with invasive intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms after resection were extracted from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database, and randomly divided into the training (n = 853) and the validation (n = 366) cohorts. Based on the Cox regression model, nomograms were constructed to predict overall survival and cancer-specific survival for an individual patient. The performance of the nomograms was measured according to discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility. Moreover, we compared the predictive accuracy of the nomograms with that of the traditional staging system.
RESULTS In the training cohort, age, marital status, histological type, T stage, N stage, M stage, and chemotherapy were selected to construct nomograms. Compared with the American Joint Committee on Cancer 7th staging system, the nomograms were generally more discriminative. The nomograms passed the calibration steps by showing high consistency between actual probability and nomogram prediction. Categorial net classification improvements and integrated discrimination improvements suggested that the predictive accuracy of the nomograms exceeded that of the American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system. With respect to decision curve analyses, the nomograms exhibited more preferable net benefit gains than the staging system across a wide range of threshold probabilities.
CONCLUSION The nomograms show improved predictive accuracy, discrimination capability, and clinical utility, which can be used as reliable tools for risk classification and treatment recommendations.

Abstract
RATIONALE Intraductal papillary and mucinous neoplasms of the pancreas (IPMN) are preneoplastic lesions diagnosed with an increasing incidence. Recently, several groups have described, in up to 70% of IPMN, activating mutations of the G-protein alpha stimulatory sub-unit (Gsα subunit) gene (GNAS). GNAS-activating somatic, post-zygotic, mutations are also associated with McCune-Albright syndrome (MCAS) characterized by fibrous dysplasia, precocious puberty, and café-au-lait spots. PATIENT CONCERNS We herein report a patient with McCune Albright Syndrome that presented with malignant IPMN and underwent pancreatic resection. DIAGNOSES AND INTERVENTIONS Leucocyte and duodenum juice DNA analysis, endoscopically collected from secretin-stimulated pancreatic juice revealed the same (GNAS) activating mutation also found in the invasive pancreatic colloid adenocarcinoma arising from intestinal subtype IPMN. OUTCOMES Thirty months after surgery, the patient was alive with recurrence (bone only metastasis). LESSONS In this observation, we show that MCAS should be view as a new genetic predisposition to IPMN associated pancreatic cancer, and consequently a targeted screening in this high-risk population might be proposed.

Wang YZ, Lu J, Jiang BL, Guo JC. Intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm of the pancreas: A systematic review. Pancreatology 2019; 19:858-865. [PMID: 31375434 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2019.07.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2019] [Revised: 07/25/2019] [Accepted: 07/26/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm of the pancreas (IOPN-P) is a rare subtype of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN). This study was performed to summarize the clinicopathological features and management of IOPN-P. METHODS English-language articles were searched from MEDLINE and EMBASE from the first report of IOPN-P in 1996 until 1 May 2019 following the methodology in the PRISMA guidelines. RESULTS In total, 66 patients from 24 full articles were included in the final data analysis. The patients' average age was 61 years, and the male/female ratio was 1. Most lesions were large (average size, 5.50 cm), located in the pancreatic head, and found either incidentally or by uncharacteristic abdominal symptoms. IOPN-P was usually a cystic and solid lesion with or without mural nodules on radiological examination. A definitive diagnosis was often acquired from fine needle aspiration biopsy or postoperative pathology. All tumors were diagnosed as carcinoma in situ or minimally invasive carcinoma, necessitating surgical resection. The prognosis of IOPN-P was better than that of other IPMN subtypes, even when metastasis occurred. Recurrence after surgical resection of IOPN-P was rare. CONCLUSIONS IOPN-P is rare among IPMN subtypes with unique pathological characteristics. Because of the nontypical symptoms and radiological findings, a definitive preoperative diagnosis usually depends on multimodal examinations. Management and surveillance of IOPN-P after surgical resection should be differentiated from those of other pancreatic benign cystic lesions because of its relative malignancy, but IOPN-P should also be differentiated from other IPMN subtypes and malignant cystic tumors because of its favorable prognosis.

Abstract
the bile duct system and pancreas show many similarities due to their anatomical proximity and common embryological origin. Consequently, preneoplastic and neoplastic lesions of the bile duct and pancreas share analogies in terms of molecular, histological and pathophysiological features. Intraepithelial neoplasms are reported in biliary tract, as biliary intraepithelial neoplasm (BilIN), and in pancreas, as pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasm (PanIN). Both can evolve to invasive carcinomas, respectively cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Intraductal papillary neoplasms arise in biliary tract and pancreas. Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the biliary tract (IPNB) share common histologic and phenotypic features such as pancreatobiliary, gastric, intestinal and oncocytic types, and biological behavior with the pancreatic counterpart, the intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the pancreas (IPMN). All these neoplastic lesions exhibit similar immunohistochemical phenotypes, suggesting a common carcinogenic process. Indeed, CCA and PDAC display similar clinic-pathological features as growth pattern, poor response to conventional chemotherapy and radiotherapy and, as a consequence, an unfavorable prognosis. The objective of this review is to discuss similarities and differences between the neoplastic lesions of the pancreas and biliary tract with potential implications on a common origin from similar stem/progenitor cells.

Abstract
The incidence of cystic pancreatic lesions is steadily increasing due to the technical advances in imaging. Within the group of cystic pancreatic lesions intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) depict an important entity. Due to a possible progression to malignancy the clinical strategy has to be well chosen. For primary diagnostic work-up imaging by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with MR cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and computed tomography (CT) scanning is recommended. Additional information can be gained by endosonography and a biopsy of the cystic lesion, allowing analysis of biomarkers, such as GNAS and KRAS mutation as wells as NLR. These can help to differentiate between IPMN and other cystic lesions although the clinical importance for the diagnosis of main duct (MD) and mixed IPMN is limited. The current guidelines (Fukuoka and EU guidelines) recommend resection of MD and mixed IPMN following oncological standards. For the definition of MD-IPMN, a duct dilatation between 5-10 mm is needed when following the current guidelines; however, current publications claim an even lower cut-off of ≥5 mm due to the risk of malignant progression. Intraoperative frozen sections are recommended to evaluate the margins status and extended resection is recommended for residual high-grade dysplasia. Surveillance of potentially at risk patients is recommended at regular intervals of 6-12 months while patients with malignant IPMN should be followed according to pancreatic cancer protocols. A screening for extrapancreatic malignancy is not indicated.
