EUS-guided FNA for diagnosis of solid pancreatic neoplasms: a meta-analysis
Michael Jonathan Hewitt,Mark J. W. McPhail,Lucia A. Possamai,Ameet Dhar,Panagiotis Vlavianos,Kevin J. Monahan +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that EUS-FNA is a highly accurate diagnostic test for solid neoplasms of the pancreas and should be considered when algorithms for investigating solid pancreatic lesions are being planned.

TL;DR: EUS-FNA is safe and can readily obtain tissue specimens adequate for cytopathological diagnoses, and is a superior modality for the detection of nodal metastases in the evaluation of lymph nodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical impact of on-site cytopathology interpretation on endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration.
TL;DR: On-site cytopathology interpretation improves the diagnostic yield of EUS-guided FNA and EUS centers should allocate resources to cover for on- site cytopATHology evaluation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endosonography-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy in the evaluation of pancreatic masses.
TL;DR: EUS FNA of pancreatic masses safely and accurately diagnoses pancreatic malignancy when prior biopsies performed by CT guidance or ERCP were unsuccessful.

Prognostic indicators for survival after resection of pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
TL;DR: In this article, a prospective database of 799 patients with the diagnosis of pancreatic adenocarcinoma were admitted to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, and their records were entered into the prospective database, and a curative resection was possible in 146 patients with a 30-day operative mortality of 3.4%.

TL;DR: Tumors with lymph node involvement, poor histologic tumor differentiation, and tumor size greater than 2.5 cm were predictors of a significantly worse survival in both univariate and multivariate analysis and other factors had no significant effect on survival.

Factors influencing survival after pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancer.

TL;DR: The most important determinant of long-term survival after pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic cancer is biology of the tumor, but performance of the resection (units of blood transfused) also appears to be an important factor influencing survival.

TL;DR: Endoscopic ultrasonography is the most effective single imaging procedure for local tumor staging in pancreatic and ampullary cancer and will improve the assessment of tumor resectability and further decrease the need for explorative laparotomy.
