Representative histological pictures of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN). (A) IPMN with gastric-foveolar differentiation. The epithelium is flattened with basally placed nuclei and abundant mucin cap resembling gastric-foveolar epithelium. (B) An IPMN with intestinal differentiation forming villous papillae resembling villous adenoma of the colon. The cells have basophilic cytoplasm with enlarged oval and hyperchromatic nuclei and scattered goblet cells. (C) IPMN with pancreatobiliary differentiation. The neoplastic cells are cuboidal, have enlarged nuclei with amphophilic cytoplasm. (A–C) Original magnification 200×.
