Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: Diagnosis by Ultrasound‐Guided Fine‐Needle Aspiration—Cyto‐Histological Correlation and Experience at a Multidisciplinary Tertiary Reference Center

Diagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page 403-416, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by its poor prognosis. Cytology is essential for diagnostic confirmation and ancillary studies. The endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) set a precedent, facilitating cytological sampling through fine‐needle aspiration (FNA), with a sensitivity of 93% and a specificity of 95%.
