Diagnostic value of K-ras mutation analysis for pancreaticobiliary cytology specimens with indeterminate diagnosis.

Cancer cytopathology - 25 Oct 2012

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Fine-needle aspiration and bile duct brushing cytology have been traditionally used for early detection of pancreaticobiliary malignancy. Quite frequently, the cytological interpretations of these specimens are indeterminate. In this retrospective study, we evaluated the diagnostic value of detecting K-ras (v-Ki-ras2 Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog) mutation in pancreaticobiliary cytology...
