Table 2 Main genetic alterations detectable in cystic pancreatic lesions

Type of pancreatic lesion	Genetic alteration	Reported frequency (%)	Type of alterations	Role in clinical practice
IPMN	KRAS	90	Point mutations	Diagnostic
	TP53	10	Point mutations/LOH	Prognostic
	GNAS	40-60	Point mutations	Diagnostic
	RNF43	25	Point mutations/LOH	Diagnostic
MCN	KRAS	0-25% (LG); 50-90% (HG)	Point mutations	Diagnostic
	CDKN2A/p16	0-10 (LG); 50 (HG)	Point mutations/LOH	Prognostic
	TP53	0 (LG); 20-50 (HG)	Point mutations/LOH	Prognostic
SCN	VHL	40-60	Point mutations/LOH	Diagnostic

The percentages quoted are estimated from the literature cited in the paper. Diagnostic role appears mainly in preoperative material. IPMN: Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms; MCN: Mucinous cystic neoplasia; LG: Low-grade mucinous cystic neoplasia; HG: High-grade mucinous cystic neoplasia; SCN: Serous cystic neoplasm; LOH: Loss of heterozygosity.
