The major lesion in this category is serous cystic neoplasm (SCN), which can either be observed or treated by resection. If imaging, cytology, and cyst fluid biochemistry (CEA and amylase) support an interpretation of an SCN, the patient can be conservatively managed with observation. However, if the patient is symptomatic and there is evidence of significant growth, which increases the risk of hemorrhage and rupture, it is resected.
