Prevalence of pancreatic cystic lesions including intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms in patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis.

2009

Objectives:Pancreatic cystic (PC) lesions are not necessarily rare, and it is important to diagnose whether PC lesions are neoplastic such as intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) because of its malignant potential. Reports on PC lesions in hemodialysis (HD) patients are remarkably limited.
