Endoscopic Ultrasound–guided Liver Biopsy

Liver Biopsy by Needle

  در نمونه برداری سوزنی کبد یا آسپیراسیون کبد، توسط سوزن نمونه برداری می توان نمونه ای از بافت کبدی را جهت تشخیص اکثر اختلالات کبدی، اثبات وجود سرطان کبد، یا ارزیابی اثرات داروهای آسیب رساننده به کبد تهیه کرد. همچنین با انجام نمونه برداری های مکرر روند پیشرفت و پاسخ بیماران به درمان بیماری های کبدی مزمنی چون هپاتیت فعال را می توان مشخص نمود.

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...

Near-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...

Nonfocal liver biopsy may be required to diagnose or stage diffuse parenchymal dis• ease such as cirrhosis, viral hepatitis, autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, hemachromatosis, and Wilson’s disease. Focal liver biopsy may be necessary to diagnose or stage primary or secondary hepatic • malignancy and to differentiate malignancy from benign hepatic m...
