Core Tip	Recent studies have suggested that main-duct and mixed intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) of the pancreas can be managed conservatively. We compared two groups of patients with resectable main-duct or mixed IPMN who had or had not undergone surgery. Significantly more patients who underwent the resection procedure survived, compared to the nonsurgical patients. Main-duct or mixed IPMN, when surgery is not possible, is associated with a 36% greater risk of developing pancreatic malignancy within a median time of 2.5 years. Dilatation of the main pancreatic duct is predictive of progression of malignancy.
