Abstract
Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) guided biopsy (FNA) is an accurate method for diagnosis of pancreato-biliary tumors (S>85%). However, the presence of a biliary stent has been reported to decrease diagnostic yield up to 47%, when staging for these tumors by EUS is performed, it’s thought that this is because of the acoustic interference effect of the stent. The information about if a biliary stent (BS) could affect diagnostic yield when FNA is...
