Revisions of international consensus Fukuoka guidelines for the management of IPMN of the pancreas. (2017, methodology): “Chemical analyses of the ﬂ uid CEA and amylase levels as well as cytology of the cyst content obtained by EUS-guided ﬁ ne needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) can be useful, but will not distinguish MCN and IPMN [44,49 e 51,56].”
