Endoscopic Ultrasound with Fine Needle Aspiration (EUS-FNA) Is Valuable in the Diagnosis of Side-Branch Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasia (SB-IPMN) of the Pancreas
Background: Pancreatic SB-IPMN often are discovered incidentally by imaging and mistaken for pseudocysts or other cystic neoplasia.
