Endoscopic ultrasound-guided liver biopsy: a multicenter experience
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Endoscopic ultrasound-guided (EUS) liver biopsy (LB) is proposed as a newer method that offers several advantages over existing techniques for sampling liver tissue. This study evaluated the diagnostic yield of EUS-LB as the primary outcome measure. In addition, the safety of the technique in a large patient cohort was assessed. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients undergoing EUS...
متن کاملNear-fatal hemorrhagic shock after endoscopic ultrasound-guided liver biopsy.
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided liver biopsy with a 19-gauge fine-needle aspiration (FNA) needle is safe and provides excellent diagnostic yield [1-4]. Post-procedural bleeding is a well-known complication of liver biopsy [5]. Although it is reasonable to assume that similar complications may arise after EUS-guided liver biopsy, no complications of this nature have been reported thus far. We...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of ultrasound-guided liver biopsy.
The risk of a major complication from "blind" percutaneous liver biopsy is reported to be in the range of 0.24% to 3.8%. In a recent randomized trial, patients whose liver biopsies were performed with ultrasonography had a significant reduction in complications requiring hospitalization compared with patients without ultrasound-guided biopsies (0.5% vs. 2.2%, P < .05). Despite this, routine use...
متن کاملEndoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Fine-Needle Aspiration Vs Fine-Needle Biopsy.
RM The primary goal of fine-needle aspiration is to acquire individual cells as opposed to tissue, which is the aim of fine-needle biopsy. Cells may not necessarily provide the stroma, or the associated architecture, of the surrounding tissue. Thus, if the surrounding architecture is needed to make a diagnosis, a fine-needle biopsy, which typically uses a core biopsy needle, should provide that.
متن کاملPancreatic melanoma metastasis diagnosed by endoscopic ultrasound-guided SharkCore biopsy.
Metastatic cancersmake up fewer than 2% of pancreaticmalignancies, and themajority of them mimic a primary adenocarcinoma [1]. Limited data are available concerning the assessment of pancreatic secondary cancers using endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle biopsy (EUSFNB) [2]. In this study we report the first case of metastatic pancreatic melanoma to be diagnosed by combining EUS with biopsy...
