| Abstract |
Given the malignant potential of main duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (M-IPMN), surgical resection is generally indicated. With regard to side-branch intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (SB-IPMN), resection vs. observation is a topic of debate. Further review of SB-IPMN is necessary to clarify appropriate management. The primary focus of this project is to determine the incidence of malignant final pathology for patients undergoing surgery for isolated SB-IPMN with non-malignant fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology. We also sought to describe the relationship between factors considered in the international consensus guidelines and final pathologic outcome. The study is a retrospective review of all patients who underwent surgical resection for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) from 2002 to 2013 at our institution. Patients with a preoperative diagnosis of isolated SB-IPMN and FNA results for non-malignant cytology were selected among this surgical cohort for further analysis of preoperative clinical characteristics and outcomes. A total of 137 patients undergoing resection for IPMN were identified. Of these, 81 patients (59 %) had a component of M-IPMN or invasive disease on FNA, leaving 66 (46 %) patients with SB-IPMN and non-malignant cytology. Invasive adenocarcinoma was found in 8/66 (12 %) patients and high-grade dysplasia (HGD) in 4/66 (8 %) patients. The mean [SD] diameter of benign SB-IPMN was 2.0 cm [1.1] (range 0.3-5.7) vs. that of HGD/invasive disease which was 3.1 cm [1.3] (range 1.5-6.0; P = 0.014). Of the 12 patients found to have HGD or invasive disease, symptoms, mural nodules, and septations were found in 7 (58 %), 5 (42 %), and 6 (50 %), respectively. Tumor staging were as follows: IA (2), IB (2), 2A (4), and 2B (1). With proper selection criteria, SB-IPMN is associated with a low rate of invasive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma at the time of resection. Nevertheless, given the demonstrated incidence of malignancy, appropriate operative candidates should undergo resection. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 09 June 2015.
All research outputs
#22,759,802
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery
#2,082
of 2,485 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#238,951
of 280,070 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery
#44
of 59 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,485 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 280,070 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 59 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
