Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration diagnosis of secondary tumors involving pancreas: an institution's experience

Secondary tumors involving the pancreas can be accurately diagnosed by EUS-FNA. Knowing the prior history of malignancy, recognizing uncommon cytomorphologic features, and performing ancillary studies are keys to improve diagnostic accuracy.
