We calculate the first passage time distribution for diffusion through a cylindrical pore with sticky walls. A particle diffusively explores the interior of the pore through a series of binding and unbinding events with the cylinder wall. Through a diagrammatic expansion we obtain first passage time statistics for the particle's exit from the pore. Connections between the model and nucleocytoplasmic transport in cells are discussed.
