Influence of the safety and diagnostic accuracy of preoperative endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration for resectable pancreatic cancer on clinical performance

TL;DR: Data indicate that the use of EUS-FNA did not influence RFS or OS, nor did it increase the risk of peritoneal recurrence, and in patients with resectable pancreatic cancer, preoperative EUS -FNA is a safe and accurate diagnostic method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single‐step simultaneous side‐by‐side placement of a self‐expandable metallic stent with a 6‐Fr delivery system for unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction: a feasibility study

TL;DR: The recently developed 6‐Fr delivery systems could facilitate a single‐step simultaneous side‐by‐side placement through the accessory channel of the duodenoscope for SEMS placement for the management of unresectable malignant hilar biliary obstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI

CTNNB1 mutational analysis of solid-pseudopapillary neoplasms of the pancreas using endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration and next-generation deep sequencing

TL;DR: Mutational analysis of CTNNB1 by NGS is feasible and was achieved using SPN samples obtained by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration, and a single-base-pair missense mutations in exon 3 of CTNF were observed in all 7 SPNs and in 1 of 11 PNET samples.
