Cystic lessions in the pancreas are uncommonly a neoplasm, but an adequate diagnosis is crucial dut to their heterogeneous behaviour. Histopathologically they have charakter of solid pseudopapillary tumors, serous microcystic adenomas, mucinous cystic neoplasms or intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms. What is more, clinicians have a lot of problem with pathologies, being a result of standard imaging examination.
