Differentiating between benign and malignant biliary stenosis (BS) is challenging, where tissue diagnosis plays a crucial role. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP)-based tissue sampling and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) with fine-needle aspiration (FNA) or biopsy (FNB) are used to obtain tissue specimens from BS. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the diagnostic yield of EUS-FNA/B plus ERCP with brushing or forceps biopsy in BS. All endoscopic procedures performed in patients with BS at our gastroenterology unit were reviewed. The gold standard for diagnosis was histopathology of surgical specimens or the progression of the malignancy at radiological or clinical follow-up. A total of 70 endoscopic procedures were performed in 51 patients with BS. Final endoscopic diagnosis was reached in 96% of the patients and was malignant in 61.7% and benign in 38.3% of cases. Sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy were 73.9%, 100%, and 80%, respectively, for EUS-FNA/B; 66.7%, 100%, and 82.5% for ERCP; and 83.3%, 100%, and 87.5% for both procedures carried out in the same session. The combination of EUS and ERCP tissue sampling seems to increase diagnostic accuracy in defining the etiology of BS. Performing both procedures in a single session reduces the time required for diagnostic work-up and optimizes resources.
鉴别良性和恶性胆管狭窄(BS)具有挑战性,组织诊断起着关键作用。基于内镜逆行胰胆管造影(ERCP)的组织采样以及内镜超声(EUS)引导下的细针穿刺抽吸(FNA)或活检(FNB)被用于从胆管狭窄处获取组织标本。这项回顾性研究的目的是评估EUS-FNA/B联合ERCP刷检或钳取活检在胆管狭窄诊断中的取材成功率。我们回顾了在消化内科接受治疗的所有胆管狭窄患者的内镜操作。诊断的金标准是手术标本的组织病理学检查结果,或影像学或临床随访中恶性肿瘤的进展情况。51例胆管狭窄患者共进行了70次内镜操作。96%的患者得出了最终的内镜诊断结果,其中61.7%为恶性,38.3%为良性。EUS-FNA/B的敏感性、特异性和诊断准确性分别为73.9%、100%和80%;ERCP的分别为66.7%、100%和82.5%;在同一次操作中同时进行这两种操作的敏感性、特异性和诊断准确性分别为83.3%、100%和87.5%。EUS和ERCP组织采样相结合似乎能提高胆管狭窄病因诊断的准确性。在同一次操作中同时进行这两种操作可减少诊断所需时间并优化资源。
