Yes you could say that--the 4 cysts were found in 2015 when having Diverticular disease diagnosed--they were 15-20mm in size but by march of 2022 2 were 25mm & 2 were 30mm pre-cancerous and "entangled" I was told by surgeons. Spleen was removed due to problems removing cysts & it was 6 hour complicated surgery. Removjng complete pancreas would have been "over treating" plus results in diabetes
Also there isn't a forum for Distal Pancreotomy & Splenectomy for non cancerous removals--

Were you told that a main duct was dilated? If so, how much?
