The preoperative misdiagnosis rate was 26%. There was no recurrence after a complete resection of pancreatic cystadenoma. The postresection 5 years′ survival rate was 42% in pancreatic cystadenocarcinoma. Conclusions It is suggested that cystic neoplasms of the pancreas is uncommon and grows slowly.
