AB  - Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasia (IPMN) encompasses a spectrum of 
      neoplastic change in the epithelial lining of the pancreatic duct. As such, it is 
      difficult to predict the presence of malignancy, and pancreatic resection is 
      established as the only effective treatment for IPMN. There is controversy about 
      the natural history, evaluation, surgical management and surveillance of IPMN; as 
      IPMN is being increasingly recognized, this controversy is being brought to the 
      forefront of clinical practice. This review presents pooled surgical data, future 
      directions and a proposed algorithm for the management of patients with IPMN.
