Performance Characteristics of a New Flexible Nitinol 19-Gauge Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Fine Needle Aspiration Needle
We would like to report out results with the use of new flexible nitinol 19 gauge (G) endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) needle. We studied the performance characteristics of this new EUS needle (ExpectTM 19 Flex; Boston Scientific, Natick, MA, USA) in cases considered difficult to perform with traditional stainless steel 19 G needles. Inclusion criteria were 1) lesio...
متن کاملProcore and Flexible 19 Gauge Needle Can Replace Trucut Biopsy Needle?
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is routinely performed for establishing tissue diagnosis in patients with gastrointestinal tumors. The concept of delivering chemotherapy based on molecular markers and the ability to establish a reliable diagnosis in lieu of an onsite cytopathologist has fuelled the recent trend in procuring core tissue by means of EUS-guided fine n...
متن کاملCorneal needle; a modification.
THE corneal needle recently described (Evans, 1954) has filled a need in corneal surgery and continues to give satisfactory results. The makerst have now suggested a modification which I find is an improvement. The new version of the n.edle has the eye placed sideways, that is, in the lateral plane instead of in the same plane as the blade, and the eye is grooved as before. It will be realized ...
متن کاملEndoscopic Ultrasound Guided Rendezvous Drainage of Biliary Obstruction Using a New Flexible 19-Gauge Fine Needle Aspiration Needle
Background and Aim. A successful endoscopic ultrasound guided rendezvous (EUS-RV) biliary drainage is dependent on accurate puncture of the bile duct and precise guide wire manipulation across the ampulla of Vater. We aim to study the feasibility of using a flexible 19-gauge fine aspiration needle in the performance of EUS-RV biliary drainage. Method. This is a retrospective case series of EUS-...
متن کاملAutoimmune hepatitis diagnosed by endoscopic ultrasound-guided liver biopsy using a new 19-gauge histology needle.
An 85-year-old woman presented with elevated liver function tests. A computed tomography (CT) scan showed normal liver morphology and a cyst in the pancreas. Viral hepatitis serology was negative but tests for autoimmune disease were positive: antinuclear antibody 1:320, antismooth muscle antibody 1:40, immunoglobulin G level 2600mg/dL. The patient underwent endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)guided fi...
