Serous cystadenocarcinoma is a serous tumor in the cystadenocarcinoma grouping.. Most commonly, the primary site of serous cystadenocarcinoma is the ovary.Rare occurrence in the pancreas has been reported, although this is not typical, with the majority of microcystic pancreatic masses representing alternate disease processes such as the more benign serous cystadenoma.
Most pancreatic cysts are benign and the risk of malignancy (pancreatic cancer) is 0.5-1.5%. Pancreatic pseudocysts and serous cystadenomas (which collectively account for 15-25% of all pancreatic cysts) are considered benign pancreatic cysts with a risk of malignancy of 0%. [1] Causes range from benign to malignant.
