I had a 2cm MD-IPMN from scan in 2021. Scan in 2022 showed cyst was 2.1 cm, but duct was showing signs of dilatation. So, I had distal pancreatectomy done this year. Pathology labeled me as stage 1b.
Refer to Figure 2 in the 2017 Fukuoka Guidelines link. It is a flow chart that summarizes recommended surveillance frequencies and intervention by size and characteristics.
