Clinical Evaluation of EUS-FNA on Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cystic Lesions

January 18, 2014 updated by: Xiaoyin Zhang

Clinical Evaluation of EUS-FNA on Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cystic Lesions----A Multiple Center,Prospective Study

It is still controversial about the necessity of endoscopy ultrasound guide fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) on diagnosis of pancreatic cystic lesions(PCL).The aim of this study is to find the influence of EUS-FNA on diagnosis and suggestions of EUS specialists.

Detailed Description

First, the investigators will send only EUS images of patients with PCL to diagnosis committee that is consisted with 8 EUS specialists from different countries.The diagnosis will be collected. Then the investigators send the results of EUS-FNA. The diagnosis and suggestions will be collected again. The investigators will calculate how much diagnosis has been changed because of results of EUS-FNA. The investigators will also follow up these patients for 5 years at least to find if these patients benefit from EUS-FNA and complications such as needle tract seeding metastases.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Other: EUS-FNA, Rate of chang on diagnosis
It is a single arm study. We will conclude by calculating the rate of change of diagnosis before and after getting the results of EUS-FNA.
Only one puncture will be performed. First the fluid will be aspirated out for biochemical analysis and cytology. Then the tissue will be aspirated out from the solid part of the lesion for pathology.
Other Names:
  • Endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration with 22G needle.
