Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) are being increasingly identified in recent years. They show
a wide spectrum of imaging and clinical features. The diagnosis and discrimination of these …

Improvements in the sensitivity and quality of cross-sectional imaging have led to increasing
numbers of patients being diagnosed with cystic lesions of the pancreas. In parallel, clinical …

This book is the third volume of the 4th Edition of the WHO series on histological and genetic
typing of human tumours. It is an authoritative, concise reference book providing an …

Cystic lesions of the pancreas are increasingly recognized. While some lesions show
benign behaviour (serous cystic neoplasm), others have an unequivocal malignant potential …

More than 2% of adults harbor a pancreatic cyst, a subset of which progresses to invasive
lesions with lethal consequences. To assess the genomic landscapes of neoplastic cysts of …

OBJECTIVES: The reporting of incidental pancreatic cystic lesions on cross-sectional
imaging studies has dramatically increased over the last few years. The prevalence of …

Background MicroRNA (miRNA) expression profiles have been described in pancreatic
ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), but these have not been compared with pre-malignant …

AIMS: To assess the diagnostic accuracies of multidetector computed tomography (MDCT)
and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for differentiating benign from malignant lesions and …

Objective: Evaluate the value of cytology relative to imaging features in risk assessment for
malignancy as defined in the Sendai Guidelines. Background: The Sendai Guidelines list …

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