ENDOSCOPIC ULTRASOUND (EUS), CONTRAST-ENHANCED EUS AND FINE NEEDLE BIOPSY (FNB) OF PARAGASTRIC LESION
This video presents a case of EUS guided FNB of a paragastric lesion. CH-EUS showed the pancreatic body marked by a hypoechoic oval mass which originated from the muscular layer of the posterior gastric wall of the body with rapid enhancement in arterial phase. FNB of the lesion with slowpull technique, both with 22G and 19G was performed and histology was consistent with Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor. The new FNB, Franseen-tip 19G needles, could represent a great advance in FNB of GI submucosal lesions and macroscopic on site evaluation (MOSE) could predict the good quality of the specimen.
