Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

All patients will receive standard medical care and no experimental interventions will be performed. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a well-established procedure commonly used for the investigation of lesions within or adjacent to the gastrointestinal (GI) lumen (i.e. pancreas, liver, mediastinal masses, left adrenal gland, lymph nodes, and subepithelial lesions). EUS-guided tissue sampling has been commonly performed with different size and types of aspiration and core biopsy needles.

Detailed Description

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a well-established procedure commonly used for the investigation of lesions within or adjacent to the gastrointestinal (GI) lumen (i.e. pancreas, liver, mediastinal masses, left adrenal gland, lymph nodes, and subepithelial lesions). EUS-guided tissue sampling has been commonly performed with different size and types of aspiration and core biopsy needles. More recently, a novel through-the-needle microforceps has been introduced. The MorayTM microforceps fits through a 19-gauge FNA needle and allows targeted tissue sampling under EUS visualization.

Aim - To prospectively evaluate the safety and diagnostic yield of the through-the-needle microforceps for pancreatic and non-pancreatic solid, cystic and mixed solid/cystic lesions.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Endoscopic ultrasound- (EUS) guided tissue sampling

All patients scheduled to undergo EUS with tissue sampling (TS) as medically indicated will be considered for the study. Patients in whom EUS-TS is considered as part of their standard medical care will be offered to participate in this study.

Other: Endoscopic ultrasound- (EUS) guided tissue sampling
EUS- guided tissue sampling of solid and/or cystic pancreatic and non-pancreatic lesions as part of their medical care.
Other Names:
  • EUS-TS
