“…Furthermore, marker identification of the grade of dysplasia of IPMNs in pancreatic cyst fluid using quantitative proteomic profiling has been performed, and 19 candidates with consistently increased or decreased expression correlated with IPMN malignancy features [ 71 ]. Another valuable marker may be the mucin-associated enhanced expression of MUC1, which was identified in malignant mucinous pancreatic cysts [ 72 ]. In case of low levels of CEA, some data indicate that measurements of chromogranin A (CgA) and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) in the cystic fluid may be helpful in the diagnosis of cystic neuroendocrine neoplasms [ 73 ].…”

Pancreatic incidentalomas (PIs) represent a clinical entity increasingly recognized due to advances in and easier access to imaging techniques. By definition, PIs should be detected during abdominal imaging performed for indications other than a pancreatic disease. They range from small cysts to invasive cancer. The incidental diagnosis of pancreatic cancer can contribute to early diagnosis and treatment. On the other hand, inadequate management of PIs may result in overtreatment and unneeded morbidity. Therefore, there is a strong need to evaluate the nature and clinical features of individual PIs. In this review, we summarize the major characteristics related to PIs and present suggestions for their management.
