Pancreatic cysts are being identified with increasing frequency due to a combination of increased awareness and more frequent use of cross sectional imaging. Cystic neoplasms of the pancreas range from completely benign to frankly malignant. Identifying pre-malignant cysts offers the opportunity to prevent the development of pancreatic cancer. This article reviews the presentation, workup, and non-operative and operative management of premalignant and malignant pancreatic cysts.

IntroductionCystic lesions of the pancreas consist of a spectrum of benign, pre-malignant, and malignant malignancies. In the past, cystic neoplasms of the pancreas were thought to be relatively rare, but the widespread use of cross sectional imaging has dramatically increased ability to detect these lesions. Although the vast majority of pancreatic cysts are discovered incidentally, large or invasive lesions may produce sufficient symptoms to cause the patient to seek medical attention.Cystic neoplasms are often confused or misdiagnosed as pseudocysts or peripancreatic collections of inflammatory fluid that may morphologically mimic cystic neoplasms. Furthermore, the presenting symptoms of pseudocysts may be identical to the symptoms associated with cystic neoplasms.Cystic neoplasms of the pancreas are traditionally organized by the type of lining epithelium since this feature dominates the risk of malignancy and management [1] ( Table 1). There are three types of mucinous lesions, benign mucinous cystadenomas, malignant mucinous cystic lesions, and intra-ductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs). The non-mucinous lesions include serous cystadenomas, cystic endocrine tumors and other rare lesions. PrevalenceThe prevalence of pancreatic cysts has been examined with autopsy examinations of the pancreas in adults without known pancreatic disease. The prevalence of pancreatic cysts found at autopsies in Japan was approximately 73 of 300 autopsies (24.3 %) cases [2]. The prevalence of cysts increased with increasing age of the patient. The cysts were located throughout the pancreatic parenchyma and were not related to chronic pancreatitis. The epithelium of the cysts displayed a spectrum of neoplastic change, including atypical hyperplasia (16.4 %); carcinoma in situ (3.4 %).
