RESUMO

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical utility of minimal specimens acquired from endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) and perform targeted deep sequencing as a prognosis prediction tool for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). A total of 116 specimens with pathologically confirmed PDAC via EUS-FNB were tested using CancerSCAN® panel for a customized targeted deep sequencing. Clinical prognostic factors significantly associated with survival in PDACs were as follows: stage, tumor mass size, tumor location, metastasis, chemotherapy, and initial CA19-9 level. A total of 114 patients (98.3%) had at least a single genetic alteration, and no mutations were detected in two patients, although they were qualified for the targeted deep sequencing. The frequencies of major gene mutations responsible for PDACs were KRAS 90%, CDKN2A 31%, TP53 77%, and SMAD4 29%. A somatic point mutation of NF1, copy number alteration of SMAD4, and loss-of-function of CDKN2A were significantly associated genetic factors for overall survival. Moreover, BRCA2 point mutation was related to liver metastasis. Finally, a clinico-genomic model was developed to estimate the prognosis of patients with PDAC based on clinical parameters and genetic alterations affecting survival in patients; 20 single nucleotide variants and three copy number variations were selected. Targeted deep sequencing on minimal specimens of PDACs was performed, and it was applied to establish a clinico-genomic model for prognosis prediction.

RESUMO

Background/Aims: Recent advances in understanding the genetics of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) have led to the potential for a personalized approach. Several studies have described the feasibility of generating genetic profiles of PDAC with next-generation sequencing (NGS) of samples obtained through endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA). The aim of this study was to find the best EUS-TA approach for successful NGS of PDAC. Methods: We attempted to perform NGS with tissues from 190 patients with histologically proven PDAC by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration and endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy at Samsung Medical Center between November 2011 and February 2015. The medical records of these patients were retrospectively reviewed for parameters including tumor factors (size, location, and T stage), EUS-TA factors (needle gauge [G], needle type, and number of needle passes) and histologic factors (cellularity and blood contamination). The sample used for NGS was part of the EUS-TA specimen that underwent cytological and histological analysis. Results: NGS could be successfully performed in 109 patients (57.4%). In the univariate analysis, a large needle G (p=0.003) and tumor located in the body/tail (p=0.005) were associated with successful NGS. The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the needle G was an independent factor of successful NGS (odds ratio, 2.19; 95% confidence interval, 1.08 to 4.47; p=0.031). Conclusions: The needle G is an independent factor associated with successful NGS. This finding may suggest that the quantity of cells obtained from EUS-TA specimens is important for successful NGS.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: ERCP-guided biliary drainage (ERCP-BD) is a criterion standard treatment for malignant biliary obstruction when curative surgery is not an option. Alternative methods such as percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage would significantly lower the quality of life. EUS-guided biliary drainage (EUS-BD) has been developed and performed by experienced endoscopists. Therefore, the aims of this study were to evaluate the efficacy and safety of EUS-BD compared with ERCP in malignant biliary obstruction. METHODS: The prospective randomized controlled study was conducted, and 30 patients were enrolled: 15 for each EUS-BD and ERCP-BD arms. The technical success, procedural time, clinical success, and adverse events were evaluated. RESULTS: Thirty patients had extrahepatic malignant biliary tract obstruction (19 men, 11 women). Twenty-seven patients had unresectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas, 1 patient had distal common bile duct cancer, and 2 patients had metastatic malignant lymphadenopathy. There were no significant differences both in terms of technical success rate and clinical success rate (100% vs 93% and 93% vs 100% in ERCP-BD vs EUS-BD, respectively; P = 1.00, P = 1.00). Four patients (31%) had tumor ingrowth-caused stent dysfunction in the ERCP-BD group, whereas 2 patients had food impaction and 2 patients had stent migration in the EUS-BD group. No significant procedure-related adverse events occurred in either group. CONCLUSIONS: This prospective randomized controlled study suggests that EUS-BD has similar safety to ERCP-BD. EUS-BD was not superior to ERCP-BD in terms of relief of malignant biliary obstruction. EUS-BD may have fewer cases of tumor ingrowth but may also have more cases of food impaction or stent migration. (Clinical trial registration number: NCT01421836.).

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is effective for tissue diagnosis of pancreatic mass. To improve diagnostic yield and drawbacks, 22-gauge (G) core biopsy (FNB) needle has been developed. This study aims to compare 22G FNA and FNB needles for EUS-guided sampling of suspected pancreatic cancer. METHODS: This is a randomized controlled crossover trial. A total of 60 patients with suspected unresectable pancreatic cancer referred for EUS-guided sampling were randomly assigned to two groups. Both groups had 22G FNA and FNB needles performed in a randomized order. The primary endpoint was the cytological, histological and overall diagnostic accuracy of pancreatic cancer. RESULTS: FNA and FNB needles reported similar level of diagnostic accuracy (FNA needle 95% vs. FNB needle 93.3%; p = .564), and it was not statistically different. However, cytological cellularity was significantly higher in the FNB needles compared to FNA needles (odds ratio 2.75, 95% confidence interval (CI)). There were no procedure-related complications in both needles. CONCLUSIONS: The diagnostic accuracy of EUS-guided sampling for pancreatic cancer using 22G FNA is comparable to FNB needles. The cytological quality of specimen is better in the FNB needle.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Recently, cholangioscopy using narrow band imaging (NBI) has been used as a diagnostic modality for better visualization in hepatobiliary malignancies; however, there are few reports on it. Our aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of cholangioscopy using NBI in hepatobiliary malignancies. METHODS: Between January 2007 and December 2016, 152 cholangioscopies using percutaneous approach were conducted in total 123 patients. Among these, 36 patients were suspicious of hepatobiliary malignancies. Thirteen patients with an ambiguous margin on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) or magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), for whom NBI tipped the balance in diagnosis of lesion and decision of lesion extent by adding NBI, were involved in our study. RESULTS: Underlying diseases were all malignant in 13 patients (11 bile duct cancers, 1 liver cancer, 1 pancreas cancer with common bile duct invasion). In 7 cases with papillary type tumor, minute superficial spreading tumor was detected by NBI more easily, and NBI provided a better visualization of tumor vessel and margin evaluation in 4 cases with infiltrative tumor. In 2 cases with mucin-hypersecreting tumor, NBI showed better penetration through the mucin and gave us a much clearer image. Nine patients ultimately underwent surgical resection. The margins predicted by NBI cholangioscopy were consistent with the pathological margins on the resected specimens. CONCLUSION: In conclusion, cholangioscopy using NBI is very useful for evaluation of suspected hepatobiliary malignancies with an ambiguous margin on ERCP or MRCP. It can give us an accurate pathologic mapping, and this information seems to be essential before deciding on a treatment strategy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: No comparative study of 22-gauge biopsy needles (PC22) and 25-gauge biopsy needles (PC25) has been conducted. We prospectively compared the diagnostic accuracy of PC22 and PC25 in patients with pancreatic and peripancreatic solid masses. METHODS: We conducted a randomized noninferiority clinical study from January 2013 to May 2014 at Samsung Medical Center. A cytological and histological specimen of each pass was analyzed separately by an experienced pathologist. The primary outcome was to assess the diagnostic accuracy using the PC22 or PC25. Secondary outcomes included the optimal number of passes for adequate diagnosis, core specimen yield, sample adequacy, and complication rates. RESULTS: Diagnostic accuracy of combining cytology with histology in three cumulative passes was 97.1% (100/103) for the PC22 and 91.3% (94/103) for the PC25 group. Thus, noninferiority of PC25 to PC22 was not shown with a 10% noninferiority margin (difference, -5.8%; 95% CI, -12.1 to -0.5%). In a pairwise comparison with each needle type, two passes was non-inferior to three passes in the PC22 (96.1% vs. 97.1%; difference, -0.97%; 95% CI -6.63 to 4.69%) but noninferiority of two passes to three passes was not shown in the PC25 group (87.4% vs. 91.3%; difference, -3.88%; 95% CI, -13.5 to 5.7%). CONCLUSIONS: Non-inferiority of PC25 to PC22 diagnostic accuracy was not observed for solid pancreatic or peripancreatic masses without on-site cytology. PC22 may be a more ideal device because only two PC22 needle passes was sufficient to establish an adequate diagnosis, whereas PC25 required three or more needle passes.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The objective of this study was to investigate the value of cyst fluid carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in combination with cytology and viscosity for the differential diagnosis of pancreatic cysts. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed our data for patients who underwent endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) and cyst fluid analysis. We investigated the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the combination of cyst fluid CEA, cytology and viscosity testing. RESULTS: A total of 177 patients underwent EUS-FNA and cyst fluid analysis. Of these, 48 subjects were histologically and clinically confirmed to have pancreatic cysts and were therefore included in the analysis. Receiver operator curve analysis demonstrated that the optimal cutoff value of cyst fluid CEA for differentiating mucinous versus nonmucinous cystic lesions was 48.6 ng/mL. The accuracy of cyst fluid CEA (39/48, 81.3%) was greater than the accuracy of cytology (23/45, 51.1%) or the string sign (33/47, 70.2%). Cyst fluid CEA in combination with cytology and string sign assessment exhibited the highest accuracy (45/48, 93.8%). CONCLUSIONS: Cyst fluid CEA was the most useful single test for identifying mucinous pancreatic cysts. The addition of cytology and string sign assessment to cyst fluid CEA increased the overall accuracy for the diagnosis of mucinous pancreatic cysts.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Anastomotic biliary strictures are common in patients that undergo living donor liver transplantation. Although endoscopic management has the advantage over percutaneous approaches, the initial success rate for the endoscopic management is unsatisfactory. The SpyGlass system can be a useful device in patients with a severe anastomotic stricture. METHODS: The SpyGlass cholangioscopy-assisted guidewire placement was performed in 15 patients with a difficult guidewire placement in which the guidewire could not transverse the stricture with conventional methods for 10 min or more. RESULTS: The visualization rate of the stricture orifice was 93.3 % (14 of 15 patients). The total success rate of the SpyGlass cholangioscopy-assisted guidewire placement was 60 % (9 of 15 patients). No procedure-related complications occurred during or after the SpyGlass cholangioscopy-assisted guidewire placement. CONCLUSIONS: This series demonstrated that the SpyGlass cholangioscopy-assisted guidewire placement is a useful method when the guidewire passage of the strictures site is impossible by conventional methods.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Covered self-expandable metal stent (CSEMS) has the risk of obstruction of the cystic duct, and the main and branch pancreatic ducts due to strong radial force and covering material, which results in cholecystitis and pancreatitis. A flower-type covered self-expandable metal stent (F-CSEMS) having a five-petal-shaped design with side grooves was constructed to prevent the obstruction of the cystic duct orifice. This study investigated the value of the F-CSEMS in protection for cholecystitis in a pig model. METHODS: Fourteen pigs randomly underwent endoscopic placement of either F-CSEMS or conventional CSEMS (C-CSEMS). The stent was placed across the cystic duct orifice to impede bile drainage from the gallbladder. Drainage was checked at 24, 48, 120 and 168 h after implantation. Blood was collected at baseline, on days 2 and 7 following implantation. The animals were killed for histologic evaluation on day 7. RESULTS: All stents were successfully inserted into bile duct without any procedure-related complications. At 48 h, the rate of contrast drainage from the gallbladder was higher in the F-CSEMS group than the C-CSEMS group without significant difference (71.4 vs. 28.6% p = 0.28). C-CSEMS was associated with higher levels of C-reactive protein (35.2 vs. 20.5 µg/dl, p = 0.03) and histologic inflammatory scores of gallbladder (score 4 vs. 2; p = 0.03). CONCLUSION: The F-CSEMS appears safe and helpful to prevent cholecystitis without disturbance of bile flow in a pig model.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: During coronary angiography and interventional procedures, catheters that are engaged in a coronary ostium are routinely flushed, typically with normal saline, to expel blood from the catheter or to inject a pharmacologic agent. Saline contains sodium and chloride ions. Such injections may affect the electrophysiologic properties of the myocardium; however, the effect of normal saline on ventricular repolarization has not been established in patients with variant angina. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We studied 51 consecutive patients with variant angina. Five mL of normal saline (NS) or 5% dextrose solution (DW) were infused into the left coronary artery in random order. We measured the heart rate, QT interval, and T-wave amplitude using Mac-Lac 5.2. RESULTS: The baseline clinical characteristics were not different between the NS {n=30 (14 males); mean age, 56+/-10 years} and the 5% DW groups {n=21 (7 males); mean age, 59+/-10 years}. The changes in the mean corrected QT (QTc) interval were significantly increased at the time of infusion of NS compared to 5% DW (45.1+/-30.3 vs. 20.9+/-23.3 ms, p=0.004). There was a T-wave amplitude change >0.2 mV in at least one-lead in 27 patients (90.0%) during NS infusion compared to 7 patients (33.3%) during 5% DW infusions (p=0.001). No significant changes in heart rate and blood pressure were noted during of the infusions. CONCLUSION: NS was associated with prolongation of ventricular repolarization in patients with variant angina.
