Next-Generation Sequencing Revealed TP53 Mutations to Be Malignant Marker for Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms That Could Be Detected Using Pancreatic Juice

Abstract

From 52 cancer-related gene analysis, only TP53 mutation was associated with malignant IPMNs. TP53 mutation could also be detected in pure pancreatic juice, potentially making it a useful tool to diagnose malignant IPMNs preoperatively.
