Most pancreatic carcinomas are unresectable at the time of diagnosis, but recently the diagnosis of carcinoma in situ of the pancreas has become possible. This diagnosis can be made by the detection of cancer cells in pancreatic juice and the radiographically demonstrated lack of a mass lesion. It has greatly improved the effectiveness of surgery. Carcinoma in situ remains within the pancreatic ductal epithelium and has not yet invaded the parenchyma. However, it has often been difficult to locate carcinoma in situ by conventional diagnostic methods, such as ultrasonography, endoscopic ultrasonography, computed tomography, and endoscopic retrograde pancreatography.
