Diagnostic accuracy of EUS-guided through-the-needle-biopsies and simultaneously obtained fine needle aspiration for cytology from pancreatic cysts: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, the diagnostic accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound guided through-the-needle-biopsies and simultaneously obtained cytology samples from pancreatic cysts compared to the final histopathological diagnosis of the surgical specimen, and to give an overview of ancillary tests performed on TTNBs.

Comparing the clinical impact of pancreatic cyst surveillance programs: A trial of the ECOG-ACRIN cancer research group (EA2185)

TL;DR: This large, prospective, randomized trial will compare the clinical effectiveness and resource allocation requirements of two guidelines addressing a common clinical entity to identify patients most likely to benefit from pancreatic resection.

Main Duct Thresholds for Malignancy Are Different in Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms of the Pancreatic Head and Body-Tail

TL;DR: In this paper , the significance of MPD in pancreatic head/body-tail as a predictor of malignancy in main-duct/mixed IPMNs was analyzed, and a receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis was utilized to identify optimal MPD cut-off for malignance.

Long-Term Assessment of Pancreatic Function After Pancreatectomy for Cystic Neoplasms

TL;DR: Pancreatectomy for benign cysts did not negatively impact patients' perceived QOL, however, after long-term follow-up, malnutrition and pancreatic insufficiency occurred in a significant percentage and may be greater than previously estimated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endoscopic ultrasound with fine needle aspiration is useful in pancreatic cysts smaller than 3 cm.

TL;DR: EUS-FNA confirmed malignancy even in lesions without worrisome features (nodule/mass), with two in every five resections showing high-risk/malignant lesions, and was also useful to diagnose benign cysts.

International consensus guidelines for management of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms and mucinous cystic neoplasms of the pancreas.

TL;DR: Ovarian-type stroma has been proposed as a requisite to distinguish MCN from IPMN, and some other distinct features to characterize IPMN and MCN have been identified, but there remain ambiguities between the two diseases.
