Core Tip	Hereditary pancreatitis significantly increases the lifetime risk of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and presents diagnostic challenges because of overlapping clinical and imaging features with chronic pancreatitis. Early recognition of hereditary pancreatitis as a cancer-predisposing condition, comprehensive germline testing, and individualized surveillance combining imaging and biomarker assessment are crucial. Timely intervention and multidisciplinary management can improve outcomes in this high-risk population.
