Pancreatic Mucinous-Cystic Neoplasm with High Grade Dysplasia
A non-invasive mucinous cystic neoplasm that arises from the pancreas and is characterized by the presence of severe dysplasia. The neoplastic columnar mucin-producing epithelial cells form papillae with irregular branching and budding. There is nuclear stratification, prominent nucleoli, and cellular pleomorphism. Mitotic activity is present and the mitoses may be atypical. (NCI Thesaurus)
