Ablative Treatment of Pancreatic Cystic Lesions

An Updated Review on Ablative Treatment of Pancreatic Cystic Lesions: Pancreatic cysts are common and often incidentally detected on abdominal imaging. Their prevalence in asymptomatic individuals depends on the screening modality used. The incidence of these lesions increases with age and may be detected in nearly half of elderly patients undergoing high-resolution MRI.Some, but not all, pancreas cysts have malignant potential. The overall risk is small but induces significant anxiety for the patient. When determining management options, it is important to consider the patient’s age, medical comorbidities, and surgical risks, as well as the wishes of the patient.
