Overview
Pancreatic cancer can be classified into malignant and borderline malignant. Duct cell carcinoma is the most common type of pancreatic cancer.
Classification
- Cellular Classification of Pancreatic Cancer[1]
- Pancreatic cancer includes the following carcinomas:
- Malignant
- Duct cell carcinoma (90% of all cases)
- Acinar cell carcinoma
- Adenosquamous carcinoma
- Cystadenocarcinoma (serous and mucinous types)
- Giant cell carcinoma
- Invasive adenocarcinoma associated with cystic mucinous neoplasm or intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm
- Mixed type (ductal-endocrine or acinar-endocrine)
- Mucinous carcinoma
- Pancreatoblastoma
- Papillary-cystic neoplasm (Frantz tumor). This tumor has lower malignant potential and may be cured with surgery alone
- Papillary mucinous carcinoma
- Signet ring carcinoma
- Small cell carcinoma
- Unclassified
- Undifferentiated carcinoma
- Borderline Malignancies
- Intraductal papillary mucinous tumor with dysplasia
- Mucinous cystic tumor with dysplasia
- Pseudopapillary solid tumor
