Ultrasound-guided percutaneous fine-needle aspiration cytology in pancreatic cancer.
Fifty-five patients underwent ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration from the pancreas. Adequate material was obtained from 33 of the 41 patients with pancreatic malignancy. A cytological diagnosis of cancer was made in 31 (94%) of these; the overall clinical success rate was 75.6%. There were no false-positive results or complications. The sensitivity of the procedure may be increased by rep...
متن کاملCases series: ultrasound-guided supraclavicular block in 105 patients
BACKGROUND Multiple needle attempts to gain a muscle twitch or a paresthesia for a classical supraclavicular brachial plexus block can increase the risks of nerve damage or pain. The aims of this study were to obtain reliable clinical data on ultrasound-guided supraclavicular blocks, demonstrate the higher success rate and fewer complications, and design an injection method for patients whose b...
متن کاملAccuracy of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration in the suspicion of pancreatic metastases
BACKGROUND Metastases to the pancreas are rare, and usually mistaken for primary pancreatic cancers. This study aimed to describe the histology results of solid pancreatic tumours obtained by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) for diagnosis of metastases to the pancreas. METHODS In a retrospective review, patients with pancreatic solid tumours and history of previou...
متن کاملDiagnosis of anaplastic pancreatic cancer with multiple liver metastases.
Sir, Pyogenic liver abscess is a rare but highly lethal disorder. The aetiology of liver abscess has undergone a significant change over the past 50 years; nowadays, benign and malignant biliary tract obstructions such as cholecystolithiasis and cholangiocarcinoma are the main causal factors leading to liver abscesses.'2 Since computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) became...
متن کاملAlleviating Pancreatic Cancer-Associated Pain Using Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Neurolysis
The most common symptom in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer is abdominal pain. This has traditionally been treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and opioid analgesics. However, these treatments result in inadequate pain control or drug-related adverse effects in some patients. An alternative pain-relief modality is celiac plexus neurolysis, in which the celiac plexus is chem...
