Percutaneous fine-needle aspiration cytology or biopsy has been used for pathological confirmation in pancreatic cancer. Sometimes, it is difficult to approach the mass because of surrounding major vessels, and there is a risk of seeding. Although endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)-guided pancreatic duct brush cytology is less invasive, its reliability is very low. Recently, aberrantly methylated genes were reported in pancreatic cancer tissue. This study was to develop a novel molecular diagnostic approach based on epigenetic characteristics.
