Core Tip Microinvasive intraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma (IPMC) is generally considered an indolent precursor of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and curative resection is expected to provide long-term disease control. This case illustrates that microinvasive IPMC can nevertheless exhibit extremely late lymph node recurrence more than a decade after two curative pancreatic resections. The findings highlight the slow but persistent malignant potential of microinvasive IPMC and emphasize the necessity of lifelong postoperative surveillance. In addition, this case underscores the importance of individualized management strategies for recurrence in very elderly patients.
