Abstract
Our results showed that IMP3 immunostaining has a higher sensitivity and specificity than mesothelin for the diagnosis of PDA. IMP3 and mesothelin may be useful markers in distinguishing neoplastic from reactive lesions of the pancreas in instances where this is impossible by morphology alone in surgical pathology practice.
