Factors affecting the accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound‐guided fine needle aspiration for the diagnosis of small (≤20 mm) pancreatic lesions
Abstract
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of endoscopic ultrasound‐guided fine needle aspiration (EUS‐FNA) for small, solid or semi‐solid pancreatic lesions (≤20 mm) and the factors affecting its accuracy. Methods Altogether 92 patients with small, solid or semi‐solid pancreatic lesions who underwent EUS‐FNA at the Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from November 2009 to January 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.
