Core Tip In this mini-review, we outline the current understanding of the role pancreatoscopy plays in assisting surgical decision-making for patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms. We explore its role in both preoperative decision-making, in determining who should be operate on, and intraoperative decision-making, in deciding what operation to perform. We outline the current methods used to directly visualise the pancreatic duct of patients with suspected or confirmed intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms and discuss the safety and utility of these procedures.
