Core Tip	Advances in diagnostic imaging modalities have increased the frequency of incidental findings of pancreatic cysts, including of the intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) - a major risk factor of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Proper retainment of patients with IPMN and regular follow-up by routine imaging examination will likely improve early detection and better prognosis of PDAC. Unfortunately, current guidelines only address management of PDAC derived from IPMN and overlook PDAC concomitant with IPMN. Screening of patients with IPMN, by endoscopic ultrasonography (currently the most reliable modality for detecting small PDAC), may facilitate early detection of both IPMN-derived and -concomitant PDAC.
