Abstract
Preoperative DM was associated with significantly higher risk of HGD and invasive carcinoma in resected IPMN, and risk of invasive carcinoma was highest in patients with recent-onset DM. Patients with DM were more likely to harbor intestinal-type IPMN and colloid carcinomas. Our findings suggest that a diagnosis of DM in patients with IPMN may warrant more aggressive surveillance.
