Clinical value of percutaneous ultrasound‐guided core needle biopsy and endoscopic ultrasound‐guided fine needle aspiration in pancreas mass / 中华超声影像学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the safety and clinical value of percutaneous ultrasound‐guided core needle biopsy( PUS‐CNB) and endoscopic ultrasound‐guided fine needle aspiration( EUS‐FNA ) in pancreas mass . Methods Ultrasound‐guided biopsy were performed in 109 cases who were difficult to diagnose to get specimens from the highly suspicious parts of the lesions by avoiding vessels . PUS‐CNB were performed in 82 cases , EUS‐FNA in 19 cases and both in 8 cases . T he site and size of lesions were recorded preopeartion . Specimens with clear pathological diagnosis were considered as satisfactory materials . Specimens that were impossible to puncture due to the existence of high risk factors in the process of puncture were considered as unsuccessful biopsy . All patients were followed up after biopsy and complications were recorded . Results The satisfaction rate and success rate of PUS‐CNB were 98 .89% and 100% ,the diagnostic accuracy and false negative rate were 97 .78% and 2 .22% . T he satisfaction rate and success rate of EUS‐FNA were 96 .15% and 96 .30% ,the diagnostic accuracy and false negative rate were 80 .77% and 23 .81% . T here were no serious complications such as pancreatic fistula ,hemorrhage and needle transfer at the needle site after puncture . Conclusions Both PUS‐CNB and EUS‐FNA are safe and effective methods for the diagnosis of benign and malignant pancreatic lesions and have high clinical values . Reasonable selection of EUS‐FNA and PUS‐CNB can safely and reliably identify and diffentiate the benign and malignant pancreatic lesions .
