2 Figure 1 Morphologic and histologic subtypes of IPMNs, as well as the types of invasive cancer. The heavy arrows indicate the most prevalent associations, whereas the thin and dotted arrows indicate less common and rare associations, respectively. By far, BD-IPMNs are the most common, and are mostly of a gastric phenotype. Although the majority do not progress to invasive cancer, when they do, the carcinomas are of the tubular type. By contrast, main and combined duct IPMNs are mostly of the intestinal type, and most do progress into invasive cancer, which is of the colloid type.
