FIGURE 1.

Case 1 during endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (EUS FNAB). Linear probe echoendoscope localised in duodenum showing a round, well circumscribed, isoechogenic lesion in the pancreatic neck that was punctured transduodenaly. Tip of the needle (upper right) is in the lesion.
Case 1 during endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (EUS FNAB). Linear probe echoendoscope localised in duodenum showing a round, well circumscribed, isoechogenic lesion in the pancreatic neck that was punctured transduodenaly. Tip of the needle (upper right) is in the lesion.

FIGURE 2.

Case 1 (A) Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). A well demarcated, isoechogenic tumour with more echogenic thin border, probably representing a solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN). (B) Pseudopapillary structures in a resected specimen (HE, X200). (C) Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (EUS FNAB). Branching pseudopapillary structures with cohesive cellular clusters and a pinkish substance in the background (MGG, X100). (D) EUS FNAB. Small clusters of bland cells with a foamy macrophage and eosinophilic substance in the background (MGG, X400). (E) Cytospin showing a group of monomorphous cells with round/oval nuclei with smooth, indented nuclear membrane and grooves (arrow) (Pap, X400). (F) Positive nuclear β-Catenin reaction in the cell block (X400).

Case 2 (A) Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS). A well demarcated, hypoechogenic tumour. (B) A slide of a resected pancreas at low magnification showing an area of normal pancreatic tissue (left) and an area of eosinophilic degenerative necrosis (right) (HE, X3). (C) Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (EUS FNAB). Naked capillaries surrounded by necrotic cells and a group of cells with preserved nuclei (MGG X100). (D) EUS FNAB. A group of mainly necrotic cells and a few cells with preserved nuclei in between. (E) A slide of a resected pancreas at high magnification as in (B) with a positive nuclear β-Catenin reaction in the tumour (right) with a perineural invasion (arrow) (X100).
