Core Tip
Core tip: Current International Consensus Guidelines for the assessment of pancreatic cysts are insufficient in the detection of advanced neoplasia in intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms. This manuscript summarizes the advances in endosonographic methods aiming to address this critical need and suggests additional research is necessary for more conclusive clinical management recommendations.
