Clinicopathological Characteristics and Long-Term Outcomes of Cystic vs. Solid Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
Cystic PanNETs have a more benign course than their solid counterparts and conservative management can be considered for EUS-FNA-proven cystic PanNETs ≤3 cm. Parenchyma and lymph-node sparing resections are warranted in patients with cystic PanNETs>3 cm. Patients with poor baseline performance status may forego cystic PanNET resection and not affect their overall survival.
