AB  - INTRODUCTION: Pancreatic surgeries are usually performed for inflammatory 
      conditions and neoplasms. Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm (IPMN) account 
      for approximately 5-7% of all pancreatic neoplasms in western literature. To the 
      best of our knowledge, there has been no published literature in Indian 
      subcontinent on IPMN. AIM: To assess the spectrum of different pancreatic 
      pathologies on pancreatic resection specimens. Also, to review and share the 
      experience on the clinicopathological features of IPMNs in our institute. 
      MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a 14 year retrospective study of all cases where 
      pancreatic surgeries were done for pancreatic pathology. The slides and blocks of 
      diagnosed cases of IPMNs were retrieved from the department archives, reviewed 
      and a detailed study on the histopathological features was done. RESULTS: Among 
      the 377 pancreatic surgical specimens, pancreatitis was the most common diagnosis 
      followed by exocrine neoplasms and endocrine neoplasms. IPMN constituted 3.2 % of 
      all pancreatic neoplasms. Histologically, the most common type was the gastric 
      foveolar type. Pancreatobiliary type was aggressive and associated with an 
      invasive component and had evidence of metastasis on follow up. CONCLUSION: IPMNs 
      are rare neoplasms of pancreas with a male predominance. They are usually 
      indolent except for the pancreatobiliary type which may have an aggressive 
      course, often associated with an invasive adenocarcinoma component. Diligent 
      follow up is recommended.
