Pancreatic
cyst is divided into non-tumor cyst and tumor cyst. For non-tumor cyst, including true cyst and pseudocyst, when the volume is small, it generally does not cause obvious symptoms, and some may be absorbed by themselves. Usually it is not serious, and can be temporarily observed without special treatment. For neoplastic cysts, there is usually a certain possibility of malignant transformation, especially mucinous cysts. The probability of cancer is usually relatively large, and it is easy to develop into pancreatic cancer, which can threaten the life and health of patients, usually more serious.
