Abstract
Dutch GE demonstrate substantial variability in the management of asymptomatic PCNs. A significant proportion of general GE still use ultrasound for surveillance of small PCNs, while GE with EUS experience were more likely to perform EUS. The presence of risk factors for malignant degeneration of IPMN were not recognized by a substantial proportion of GE. Data on the natural history of PCNs is required to provide input for evidence-based guidelines, which should lead to a more uniform approach.
