Small cell carcinoma of the bile duct system is extremely rare, and surgical procedures have been complicated by early hematogenous dissemination. In this study, we report a patient with small cell carcinoma of the bile duct system presenting with jaundice. The diagnosis was made early by endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (EUS-FNA). We performed radiation therapy o...
We would like to report out results with the use of new flexible nitinol 19 gauge (G) endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) needle. We studied the performance characteristics of this new EUS needle (ExpectTM 19 Flex; Boston Scientific, Natick, MA, USA) in cases considered difficult to perform with traditional stainless steel 19 G needles. Inclusion criteria were 1) lesio...
BACKGROUND At present only few studies directly compare the diagnostic yield of endobronchial ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration (EBUS-FNA) and transcervical video-assisted mediastinoscopy (TM) for mediastinal lymph node staging in patients with NSCLC. If and when EBUS-FNA may replace TM as Gold Standard remains controversial. METHODS From April 2008 to December 2009, 36 patients with m...
Implications of assessing the proximal and far para-tracheal or sub-carinal nodes (para-tracheal [PTN] or sub-carinal [SCN]) associated with lower primary esophageal carcinomas (ECs) are unclear. To evaluate the value of endoscopic ultrasound guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) for PTN and SCN, we analyzed results by positron emission tomography (PET) avidity, 4 EUS node malignancy features...
CONTEXT Pancreatic/para-pancreatic tuberculosis is an extremely rare clinical entity even in endemic regions. It can present as a cystic or solid pancreatic mass mimicking pancreatic malignancy. There are no specific imaging criteria and the clinical symptoms remain vague. Therefore, most cases are diagnosed after surgical exploration for presumed pancreatic neoplasia. CASE REPORT We report f...
BACKGROUND Fine needle aspiration (FNA) of the appendiceal mucocele is generally avoided because of fear that puncture of a distended viscus will lead to rupture or seeding of neoplastic cells and result in localized or diffuse pseudomyxoma peritonei. Cytologic reports regarding FNA of appendiceal mucoceles are virtually nonexistent. CASE A 55-year-old male with a preoperative diagnosis of an...
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is well known as a safe diagnostic procedure. We report the first case of pancreatic pseudocyst after EUS-FNA of the pancreatic body mass. A 60-year-old male underwent EUS-FNA for incidentally detected pancreatic solid mass which was suspected as neuroendocrine tumor. Two weeks later, the patient visited emergency room with acute abd...
Background and study aims The low sensitivity of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA), especially for the diagnosis of serous cystadenomas (SCAs), can be associated with diagnostic uncertainty that can regularly lead to unnecessary surgical procedures. Needle-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (nCLE) used with EUS-FNA improves diagnostic accuracy, helping to reduce un...
Introduction of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) to medical practice has brought a huge change in diagnostic algorithm of many gastrointestinal diseases. Addition of EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) upgraded diagnostic power of EUS. In this focused review series, value of EUS-FNA in the diagnosis of various diseases and tips for getting the best results with EUS-FNA are described by four invi...
Accurate cancer staging is essential in patients with hollow viscus malignancy to decide therapeutic modalities. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is considered as the best modality for local staging of hollow viscus cancer. EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) is a minimally invasive and effective sampling method. EUS-FNA should be applied when positive diagnosis of malignancy can possibly change...
