Abstract

Intraductal papillary neoplasms include intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) and intraductal tubulopapillary neoplasm (ITPN). These are both discussed in this chapter, together with a brief mention of other (non-ductal) neoplasms that can show intraductal growth in the pancreas. The classification, sampling, morphological features, and different mucin profiles of IPMNs are included, together with discussion of the lengthy differential diagnosis. Up-to-date guidance on management and a reporting checklist are also provided.
