Our study aims to estimate the global prevalence of surgical resections for IPMNs w/LGD and benign cysts, as well as the pre‐operative misclassification rate among all resected PCLs. Methods We searched the literature through September 2023 to identify full‐text articles that reported the surgical histopathology of resected PCLs. A proportional meta‐analysis was performed using a random‐effects model, with prevalence estimates reported as pooled proportions.

The pre‐operative misclassification of PCLs has significantly decreased over time ( p < 0.01), although not significantly influenced by increasing EUS utilization or geographic location. Conclusion One quarter of PCLs are pre‐operatively misclassified and ∼44% are surgically resected for benign cysts or IPMNs w/LGD. Implementation of advanced diagnostic tools might improve pre‐operative classification and reduce overtreatment of PCLs. 25:[[["$","script","0",{"type":"application/ld+json","dangerouslySetInnerHTML":{"__html":"{\"@context\":\"https://schema.org\",\"@type\":\"CollectionPage\",\"name\":\"Pancreatic Cystic Lesions: condition Research & Clinical Takeaways\",\"description\":\"Explore peer-reviewed papers on Pancreatic Cystic Lesions (condition).

lesions (PCLs) prove to be intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms with low-grade dysplasia (IPMN-LGD) or benign cysts, and the rate of pre-operative misclassification; subgroup/meta-regression examined endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) use, enrollment years, and geography.","key_result":"Among resected PCLs, pooled proportions were: IPMN-LGD 24% (95% CI 18–32), serous cystadenomas 16% (13–19), other benign cysts 4% (3–6), and pre-operative misclassification 24% (16–34). Of resected IPMNs, 62% had LGD (51–71); greater pre-operative EUS use correlated with fewer SCA resections (p<0.05) but not with IPMN-LGD resections, and misclassification decreased over time (p<0.01) without significant influence from EUS use or geography.","practice_takeaway":"Roughly 44% of resected PCLs are benign or IPMN-LGD, and one quarter are misclassified before surgery; stronger pre-operative classification is needed to avoid overtreatment. Increasing EUS use appears to curb SCA resections, but advanced diagnostic tools may be required to further reduce unnecessary operations."}}],"initialOffset":1,"fetchConfig":{"kind":"tags","tags":[{"tag_type":"condition","value":"Pancreatic Cystic Lesions"}]},"breadcrumbItems":[{"name":"Home","href":"/"},{"name":"Research Hub","href":"/hub"},{"name":"Conditions","href":"/hub/tag/condition"},{"name":"Pancreatic Cystic Lesions"}],"hrefConfig":{"basePath":"/hub/papers","webViewQueryParams":{"hub_ctx":"tag","hub_tag_type":"condition","hub_tag_value":"Pancreatic Cystic Lesions"}}}]]
