Pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia, abbreviated PanIN, is generally believed to be the precursor lesion for ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.
General
- PanIN is thought to be the precursor lesion for pancreatic carcinoma.[1]
Overview
Putative preneoplasm-neoplasm-carcinoma sequence:
- PanIN1a.
- Not neoplastic, i.e. clonal.
- PanIN1b.
- Not neoplastic, i.e. clonal.
- PanIN2.
- Can be thought of as low-grade dysplasia, e.g. a (colonic) tubular adenoma without high-grade dysplasia.
- PanIN3.
- Can be thought of as high-grade dysplasia, e.g. (colonic) villous adenoma.
- May be referred to as carcinoma in situ.[2]
Microscopic
Features:[1]
- PanIN1a - increased amount of cytoplasm.
- Nuclear size & stratification perserved, arch. perserved.
- PanIN1b - increased amount of cytoplasm, folding of epithelium/moderated arch. distortion.
- Nuclear size & stratification perserved.
- PanIN2 - increased cell size, and nuclear enlargement (increased NC ratio), moderate nuclear atypia with loss of (basal) nuclear polarization.
- PanIN3 - marked nuclear atypia with increased NC ratio.
- No invasion identified.
- Pancreatic carcinoma - cytologic features of PanIN3 with definite invasion.
