The diagnostic value of FNA biopsy in grading pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors
CONCLUSIONSThe current results exhibit good correlation between FNA grade and final grade on surgical resection specimens using Ki‐67 index, even in samples with less than the recommended total cell count. Therefore, grading of PNETs on FNA with the Ki‐67 proliferation index should be assessed and is a practical parameter to report to clinicians. Cancer Cytopathol 2017. © 2017 American Cancer Society.
