Esophageal seeding after endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration of a mediastinal tumor
Background and study aims Tumor seeding after endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is rare. A 53-year-old man underwent transesophageal EUS-FNA for diagnosis of a 6-cm mass in the mediastinum as seen by computed tomography (CT). Four weeks later, repeat CT scan revealed a mass in the esophageal wall. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy confirmed a lesion in the mid-esopha...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound in the diagnosis of mediastinal diseases
EUS is a useful tool for diagnosis of mediastinal diseases. EUS-FNA plays an important role in staging of lung cancer and in tissue acquisition in patients with mediastinal masses. In this review, the following issues will be addressed: EUS-FNA and EBUS-TBNA, metastatic mediastinal lymph nodes diagnosed by EUS, EUS in assessment of mediastinal lymph node status for staging of lung cancer, media...
متن کاملEUS-guided fine-needle aspiration in the mediastinum.
The evaluation and management of esophageal and mediastinal disease has changed considerably since the introduction of EUS. EUS provides precise imaging of the histologic layers of the esophageal wall and surrounding mediastinal structures. EUS is now a well-established modality for the staging of a variety of GI and pancreaticobiliary malignancies. Furthermore, it has been reported to play an ...
متن کاملAn Algorithmic Approach for Assessment of Mediastinal Lesions Using Conventional Transbronchial Needle Aspiration and Endoscopic Ultrasonography in a Single Procedure
BACKGROUND In the era of endobronchial/esophageal ultrasound (EBUS-TBNA/EUS-FNA), many centers forgo conventional transbronchial needle aspiration (C-TBNA) in favour of EBUS-TBNA/EUS-FNA despite no conclusive evidence showing better yields with EBUS-TBNA/EUS-FNA. OBJECTIVES Assess the feasibility of an algorithmic approach for mediastinal sampling beginning with C-TBNA utilizing rapid onsite ...
متن کاملThe complete ''medical'' mediastinoscopy (EUS-FNA + EBUS-TBNA).
Diagnosis of indeterminate mediastinal masses and staging of lung cancer poses a significant challenge. Options for tissue diagnoses include computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous biopsy, transbronchial fine-needle aspiration, mediastinoscopy/mediastinotomy or thoracoscopy, but these investigations have limitations in terms of tissue yield, safety profile and cost. Trans-esophageal endosc...
