Endoscopic Ultrasound Features Associated with Malignancy and  Aggressiveness of Nonhypovascular Solid Pancreatic Lesions: Results from a Prospective Observational Study.

CONCLUSION:  Irregular margins on EUS are associated with malignancy/aggressiveness of nonhypovascular SPLs. Size > 20 mm should be considered a malignancy-related feature only in NET patients. EUS-TA is safe and highly accurate for differential diagnosis in this group of patients.
