Progression of Unresected Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms of the Pancreas to Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Abstract: In a systematic review and meta-analysis, we found that low-risk IPMNs have almost 8% chance of progressing to pancreatic cancer within 10 years, and higher-risk IPMNs have almost 25% chance of progressing to cancer in 10 years; incidence values increase linearly with time. Continued long-term surveillance is therefore vital for patients with low-risk IPMNs.

“…The model started with a 65-year-old patient as this can be seen as the average age of detection/diagnosis. 32 For a younger patient our analysis showed that a surgical approach, especially strategy I, can be a suitable option. We did not incorporate loss of productivity into our analysis, which we believe would have further strengthened a more active approach in a younger patient.…”

“…Often, both these types of dysplasia can be seen in the same lesion suggesting progression from low grade to high grade occurs in vivo. A LG dysplasia lesion has 8% chance of turning into IPMN associated carcinoma while a HG dysplasia lesion turns into IPMNC with 25% chance over 10 years [10]. Pancreatic cancer has poor survival rates which have improved only little in recent years even in developed countries.…”

“…These imaging modalities will reveal an incidental pancreatic lesion in up to 45% of patients [1][2][3][4]. Many incidentally identified pancreatic cysts are IPMNs, a subset of which may be precursors of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) [5][6][7].…”
