Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The nature of cysts and solid masses in the pancreas can be difficult to diagnose. They may be benign, precancerous, or cancer. Current tests such as cytology (looking under a microscope) and tumor markers do not always give us the answer. The investigators are looking for genetic markers on biopsy specimens from the pancreas that will give us a better test for diagnosis. This study is only for diagnosing these lesions. The investigators are not treating any patients.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
pancreas cysts and solid masses

patents referred for solid and cystic lesions of the pancreas who will have a biopsy for usual medical care.

Procedure: pancreas biopsy
patients who are already having a pancreas biopsy will be invited to enroll. After obtaining enough tissue for usual medical care, we will divert some tissue for the study.
