ID: 3520672 INTRACYSTIC GLUCOSE LEVELS IN DIFFERENTIATING MUCINOUS FROM NON-MUCINOUS PANCREATIC CYSTS: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS

Mucinous cystic pancreatic neoplasms (MCPN) carry a high risk of malignant transformation as compared to non-mucinous cystic pancreatic neoplasms (N-MCPN), which are mostly benign. Non-surgical methods of differentiating MCPN from N-MCPN are challenging and often require a multi investigational approach. Our aim was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of low intracystic glucose levels in differentiating MCPN and...
