Core Tip	The authors review the main pathological features of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas, including diagnostic criteria and relevance of macroscopic (i.e., main duct, branch duct and mixed or combined) and microscopic (i.e., gastric, intestinal, pancreatobiliary and oncocytic) IPMN classification. Different pathways, mucin immunophenotypes and invasive carcinoma related to IPMN are addressed. Differential diagnosis with pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasm, mucinous cystic neoplasm and other mucinous and non-mucinous pancreatic cystic lesions are also included.
