Objectives: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology (EUS-FNAC) is
an effective method to acquire tissue from the mucosal, submucosal, and peri-intestinal
structure with the pancreas being the most common organ to be targeted. This study is
aimed to evaluate the role of EUS-FNAC in pancreatic lesions as well as other
gastrointestinal (GI) structures including lymph nodes, upper GI tract, liver, and spleen.
Material and Methods: A total of 71 cases were taken in which EUS FNAC was performed …

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) and biopsy (FNB) has
been widely accepted as a fundamental procedure for the diagnosis and staging of lesions
of the gastrointestinal tract or non-gastrointestinal lesions within reach of the aspiration
needle. EUS-FNA has been used in lesions of the esophagus, mediastinal lesions, lymph
node (LN) sampling, lung cancer diagnosis and other less common conditions (such as
tuberculosis and sarcoidosis), gastrointestinal subepithelial lesions, pancreatic solid cystic …
