Endoscopie ultrasound (EUS) provides detailed, high-resolution images of the pancreas.
However, whether a lesion is malignant or benign cannot be diagnosed solely from its …

Objectives: Different diagnostic entities can present as solid pancreatic lesions (SPL). This
study aimed to explore the utility of endoscopic ultrasound-guided reverse bevel fine-needle …

EUS-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA) by fine needle aspiration (FNA)(EUS-FNA) and fine-
needle biopsy (EUSFNB) have become integral to the diagnosis and staging of GI and other …

Results: A total of 100 pancreatic FNAs were obtained by EUS. Most positive diagnoses of
malignancy were pancreatic adenocarcinomas (n= 61). The site of pancreatic …

Background: Recently, EUS-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) using a Franseen needle
was developed for histological tissue acquisition. However, the yield of a 25G Franseen …

Background: Few reports have described endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided fine needle
aspiration (FNA) for biliary lesions. In addition, adverse events were not completely …

Background EUS-guided FNA (EUS-FNA) has a high diagnostic accuracy for pancreatic
diseases. However, although most reports have typically focused on cytology, histological …

BACKGROUND: There is no standardization of the use of suction during puncturing of a
target in pancreatic EUS-guided FNA (EUS-FNA). It is also debatable whether expressing …

BACKGROUND: The currently accepted paradigm is that the false-positive (FP) rate for EUS-
guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) cytologic analysis of a pancreatic lesion is less …

Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic
ultrasonography (EUS)-guided trucut biopsy (TCB) for diagnosis of autoimmune pancreatitis …
