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

open access: yesDiagnostic 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%.

Unsatisfactory ThinPrep Pap Tests: An Educational Approach to Quality

open access: yesDiagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 54, Issue 6, Page 444-448, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background The unsatisfactory percentage for ThinPrep Pap Tests (TPPT) at our institution reached the 75th percentile (2.7%) benchmark established by the College of American Pathologists (CAP). Our aim was to identify outliers by analysis of data, provide education and feedback, and establish a system to monitor outcomes.
