Core Tip This systematic review and meta-analysis examined comparative diagnostic efficacy of liquid-based cytology (LBC) and smear cytology (SC) using endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration in diagnosing pancreatic lesions. The pooled analyses of 1656 patients from 8 studies performed herein, using only comparative test accuracy studies, revealed a higher sensitivity of LBC to SC in the diagnosis of benign and malignant pancreatic lesions. Additionally, the diagnostic performance of LBC combined with SC was higher than that of LBC or SC, alone (P < 0.05). We recommend the combined use of LBC and SC in the evaluation of pancreatic lesions.
