Recent advances in imaging have increased detection of pancreatic cystic lesions, which
account for up to 10% of pancreatic neoplasms. They are increasingly sampled by …

Pancreatic cyst aspirates are often scant specimens with few cells. Cytology alone may not
be sufficient for diagnosis. A multimodal approach that utilizes gross cyst fluid …

The diagnosis of incidental pancreatic cystic lesions is increasing in the general population
because of the routine use of cross-sectional imaging modalities. Not all cysts are …

Introduction Many pancreatic cystic lesions (PCL) are of neoplastic nature with potential to
progress to pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Early stratification of patients to either clinical …

Context.—Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) are very common, and their detection is
increasing with the advances in imaging techniques. Because of the major implications for …

Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) are a heterogenous group of lesions ranging from benign to
malignant. There has been an increase in PCLs prevalence in recent years, mostly due to …

Pancreatic cyst detection is increasing largely due to increasing use of cross‐sectional
imaging. The management of pancreatic cysts differs for true cysts, pseudocysts, mucinous …

Patient management algorithms are evolving as more is learned about the biological
behavior of neoplastic cysts of the pancreas. Cytological analysis alone suffers from …

The diagnosis and management of pancreatic cystic lesions remains a challenging area in
gastroenterology. Differentiating benign from premalignant or premalignant from malignant …

Background The work-up of cystic lesions of the pancreas often involves endoscopic
ultrasound (EUS) with fine needle aspiration (FNA). In addition to CEA and amylase …
