Meanings of pancreatic cysts in inglês

Conclusion: Patients with pancreatic cysts have a significantly higher overall risk of PaCa.

Purpose of review: An increasing number of patients are being diagnosed with pancreatic cysts.

Objective: To define a group of patients with pancreatic cysts who do not require resection.

Summary: The diagnosis and management of patients with pancreatic cysts have progressed significantly in recent years.

Conclusions: Risk factors other than cyst size are important for determination of malignancy in pancreatic cysts.

Cyst fluid analysis for amylase and carcinoembryonic antigen aids in the preoperative classification of pancreatic cysts.

Conclusions: Cyst fluid telomerase activity can be a useful predictor of the neoplastic grade of pancreatic cysts.

The addition of EUS-FNA to abdominal imaging significantly increases overall accuracy for diagnosis of neoplastic pancreatic cysts.

Background and aims: Early diagnosis of cancer in pancreatic cysts is important for timely referral to surgery.

We established a scoring system for predicting the presence of one or more pancreatic cysts using a split-sample method.

Summary background data: The increased use of cross-sectional imaging has resulted in an increased identification of small, asymptomatic pancreatic cysts.

Objectives: There are currently no diagnostic indicators that are consistently reliable, obtainable, and conclusive for diagnosing and risk-stratifying pancreatic cysts.

We further validated these combinatorial markers on an independent cohort of 130 pancreatic cysts, and achieved high and well-balanced accuracies.

Methods: We performed retrospective analyses of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and pathology databases identifying pancreatic cysts with available final pathological diagnoses.

However, whether patients with pancreatic cysts have a higher long-term risk of pancreatic cancer (PaCa) has still not been established.

We investigated the prevalence and predictive factors for the presence of pancreatic cysts within a large number of subjects via general health examination.
