Detection value of endoscopic ultrasound-guided 19G fine-needle wet-heparinized suction for pancreatic solid tumors: a randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Conventional endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) has some inevitable flaws in the detection of pancreatic solid tumors, such as an incomplete histological structure of the obtained pancreatic biopsy tissues and blood coagulation. Heparin can prevent blood coagulation, thus improving the structural integrity of the specimen. However, whether the combination of EUS-FNA and wet heparin can improve the detection of pancreatic solid tumors needs to be further explored. Hence, this study aimed to compare the EUS-FNA combined with wet heparin and the conventional EUS-FNA, and analyze the detection value of EUS-FNA combined with wet heparin for pancreatic solid tumors.

Methods

The clinical data of 52 patients with pancreatic solid tumors who had
