Sa1443 CYST FLUID CARCINOEMBRYONIC ANTIGEN DIFFERENCE AMONG MUCINOUS CYSTIC NEOPLASMS AND INTRADUCTAL PAPILLARY MUCINOUS NEOPLASMS

Cyst fluid carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) is a useful marker for differentiating between mucinous from nonmucinous pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs). However, the role of cyst fluid CEA levels in differentiation between mucinous cystic neoplasms (MCNs) and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) as well as between the low risk (LR) and high risk (HR) mucinous lesions are scanty. We aimed to analyse this subject.
