Review Description

Pancreatic cytopathology plays a critical role in the management of patients with cystic and solid pancreatic masses. The frequency of pancreatic fine-needle aspiration continues to increase and general surgical pathologists and cytopathologists need to be aware of the most commonly encountered entities as well as the pitfalls associated with gastrointestinal tract contaminants in endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration. This article focuses on the most commonly encountered pancreatic lesions and the importance of correlation of cytologic features with clinical, radiologic, and ancillary studies for accurate diagnosis.
