P-HPB-04: Usefulness of contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasonography for diagnosis of pancreatic tumors

چکیده
S18 ENDOSCOPIC ULTRASOUND / VOLUME 6 / SUPPLEMENT 1 / AUGUST 2017 and adenocarcinoma was detected. None of the lesions had mucinous morphology. There were no periprocedural complications. Conclusion: EUS is an effective modality to detect occult primary in patients with CUPS with suspected pancreaticobiliary origin. Larger studies assessing its costeffectiveness and identifying positive predictive factors are needed before incorporating EUS in the routine diagnostic workup of these patients.

Contrast-Enhanced Harmonic Endoscopic Ultrasonography in Pancreatic Diseases
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) is the most sensitive imaging method for diagnosis of pancreatic tumors. However, it still has limits in the differentiation between pancreatic cancers and inflammatory tumor-like masses. A novel technology, contrast-enhanced harmonic EUS (CH-EUS), has been developed recently. It can visualize both parenchymal perfusion and microvasculature in pancreas without D...
متن کاملContrast-Enhanced Harmonic Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Fine-Needle Aspiration in the Diagnosis of Solid Pancreatic Lesions: A Retrospective Study
BACKGROUND The negative predictive value of endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine needle aspiration for the diagnosis of solid pancreatic lesions remains low, and the biopsy specimens are sometimes inadequate for appropriate pathological diagnosis. AIMS To evaluate the usefulness of a novel method of contrast-enhanced harmonic endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration for the ...
متن کاملContrast-enhanced harmonic endoscopic ultrasonography in gallbladder cancer and pancreatic cancer.
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) plays a major role in diagnosing gallbladder (GB) cancer and pancreatic cancer (PC). In cases of GB cancer, EUS allows for precise observations of morphology and wall layers. However, proficiency is required for the morphologic diagnosis of GB tumors. Therefore, contrast-enhanced harmonic EUS (CH-EUS) began to be performed to diagnose GB lesions. CH-EUS enables ...

S6 ENDOSCOPIC ULTRASOUND / VOLUME 6 / SUPPLEMENT 1 / AUGUST 2017 50–85 months) of the 114 patients with CR, only two patients (1.7%) showed cyst recurrence. Based on multivariate analysis, the absence of septa (odds ratio [OR], 7.12; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.72–18.67) and cyst size <35 mm (OR, 2.39; 95% CI, 1.11–5.16) predicted CR. Conclusion: Among patients with pancreatic cysts who ach...
متن کاملDiagnosing Pancreatic Tumors Using Contrast-enhanced Harmonic Endoscopic Ultrasonography with Sonazoid.
Contrast-enhanced harmonic endoscopic ultrasonography (CH-EUS) with contrast agent enabled us to assess the hemodynamics closely, despite limited data in pancreatic tumors. We have initiated a prospective, single arm, and non-randomized study to clarify the accuracy and safety of CH-EUS with Sonazoid and time-intensity curve (TIC) analysis for diagnosing benign or malignant pancreatic tumors. A...
