The aim of the study was to develop a formula for predicting the probability of malignancy of mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN) of the pancreas with ovarian-type stroma. A total of 364 patients were enrolled. A total score was calculated as the sum of the approximate integers of the odds ratios of the...
