EUS Guided Pancreatic Duct Drainage: When? How?
Despite advances in endoscopy, EUS-guided pancreatic duct drainage (EUS-PDD) remains a technically challenging procedure. There is still a high rate of adverse events ranging from 15-60% and the procedure can be life threatening. Until recently, a significant difficulty with this technique was the absence of dedicated devices. Proper patient selection is of utmost importance; EUS-PDD should be ...
متن کاملSafety and Efficacy of Ultrasound-Guided Fiducial Marker Implantation for CyberKnife Radiation Therapy
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety and technical success rate of an ultrasound-guided fiducial marker implantation in preparation for CyberKnife radiation therapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 270 percutaneous ultrasound-guided fiducial marker implantations in 77 patients, which were performed from June 2008 through March 2011. Of 270 implantations, 104 were implanted in me...
متن کاملIs endosonography guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) for sarcoidosis as good as we think?
BACKGROUND Preliminary data show that endosonography guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) may be an accurate method for diagnosing sarcoidosis. However, these data were obtained in a small selected group of patients with a very high pretest probability of sarcoidosis. This retrospective study reports on the use of EUS-FNA in an unselected group of patients with mediastinal lymphadenopathy of...
متن کاملA pilot study of EUS-guided fiducial insertion for the multidisciplinary management of gastric cancer
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS The 5-year survival rates for gastric cancer remain poor despite evolving therapies, and fiducial insertion via endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is novel within this setting. We aimed to assess the feasibility of fiducial insertion for response assessment and anatomic localization in patients with gastric cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS A prospective phase II feasibility stu...
متن کاملCyberknife radiotherapy for vestibular schwannoma.
Stereotactic radiosurgery is a well-established treatment modality for vestibular schwannoma. Initial reports using single-stage radiosurgery have demonstrated excellent tumor control rates. Many patients now elect to undergo radiosurgery given the potential for tumor control while avoiding the morbidity associated with microsurgical resection. In attempt to improve hearing preservation rates o...
