1

From cytology (Belsley et al. 11 , Le Borgne et al. 12 , Maker et al. 13 , Müssle et al. 14 , Thornton et al. 15 , Thosani et al. 16 ).

2

From superficial vascular network using nCLE (Napoléon et al. 6 ).

3

Calculated from Jais et al. 9 .

4

Based on Jais et al. 9 in which the resection rate of any type of pancreatic cyst lesion ranged from 54 % to 94 % during the period 2010 to 2014.
