摘要: Objective: Better tools are needed for early diagnosis and classification of pancreatic cystic lesions (PCL) to trigger intervention before neoplastic precursor progress adenocarcinoma. We evaluated the capacity molecular analysis improve accuracy cytologic PCL with an emphasis on non-diagnostic/negative specimens. Design: In a span 7 years, at tertiary care hospital, 318 endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspirations (EUS-FNA) were by examination analysis. Mucinous identified based clinical algorithm 46 surgical resections used verify this approach. The mutation allele frequency (MAF) commonly altered genes (BRAF, CDKN2A, CTNNB1, GNAS, RAS, PIK3CA, PTEN, SMAD4, TP53 VHL) was their ability identify grade mucinous PCL. Results: Cytology showed diagnostic sensitivity 43.5% due in part impact non-diagnostic (28.8%) negative (50.5%) Incorporating algorithmic approach or markedly increased evaluation. Detection 93.3% detection KRAS and/or GNAS gene mutations (p = 0.0001). Additional provided marginal improvement but associated cyst type (e.g. SMAD4). cohort, proposed comparable (88.9% vs. 100%). Conclusions: somatic evaluation EUS-FNA increases detection, grading This has potential patient management.
