Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we investigated whether Exo regulate the proliferation and invasion of PC. METHODS In this study, we isolated the Eriobotrya japonica Exo using Ultra-high speed centrifugal method. Mass spectrum were used for Exo active components analysis. PC (Capan-1 and Bxpc-3) cells proliferation, migration, and apoptosis were detected using CCK8, ethynyldeoxyuridine, transwell, wound healing, and flow cytometry analyses. We also constructed a lung metastatic mouse model and subcutaneous tumor model to illustrate the regulation effect of Exo or active components. Proteomics were used to reveal the regulatory mechanism responsible for the observed effects. RESULTS We isolated Eriobotrya japonica Exo and found that Exo treatment significantly suppressed cell migration and proliferation in both in vivo and in vitro using Capan-1. Mass spectrum for Exo active components analysis found that Exo contains high amounts of corosolic acid (CRA). The further study found that CRA treatment inhibit the proliferation, migration, and increased cell death of both Capan-1 and Bxpc-3 cells in a concentration-dependent manner. In vivo experiments confirmed that CRA inhibited pulmonary metastasis by decreasing the number of metastatic foci. Cell proteomics analysis showed that CRA treatment induced spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase 1 (SAT1)-dependent ferroptosis. Treatment with the ferroptosis suppressor ferrostatin-1 significantly reversed CRA-induced cell apoptosis. CONCLUSION The data suggested that corosolic acid delivered by exosomes from Eriobotrya japonica decreased pancreatic cancer cell proliferation and invasion by inducing SAT1-mediated ferroptosis.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Hematogenous gastric metastasis from pancreatic cancer is extremely rare. We describe FDG PET/CT findings in a case of isolated hematogenous gastric metastasis from pancreatic cancer with significantly elevated serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 level. The gastric metastasis showed intense focal FDG uptake mimicking a primary tumor. The elevation of serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 level may be useful as an aid in the differential diagnosis.

Abstract
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a means to procure adequate specimens for histological and cytologic analysis. The ideal EUS-FNA should be safe, accurate, and have a high sample adequacy rate and low adverse events rate. In recent years, many guidelines and trials on EUS-FNA have been published. The purpose of this article is to provide an update on the influence of some of the main factors on the diagnostic efficiency of EUS-FNA as well as a rare but serious complication known as needle tract seeding.

Abstract
Pancreatic surgery is considered one of the most technically challenging surgical procedures, despite the evolution of modern techniques. Neoplasms remain the most common indication for pancreatic surgery, although inflammatory conditions may also prompt surgical evaluation. The choice of surgical procedure depends on the type and location of the pathologic finding because different parts of the pancreas have separate vascular supplies that may be shared by adjacent organs. The surgical approach could be conventional or minimally invasive (laparoscopic, endoscopic, or robotic assisted). Because of the anatomic complexity of the pancreatic bed, perioperative complications may be frequently encountered and commonly involve the pancreatic-biliary, vascular, lymphatic, or bowel systems, irrespective of the surgical technique used. Imaging plays an important role in the assessment of suspected postoperative complications, with CT considered the primary imaging modality, while MRI, digital subtraction angiography, and molecular imaging are considered ancillary diagnostic tools. Accurate diagnosis of postoperative complications requires a solid understanding of pancreatic anatomy, surgical indications, normal postoperative appearance, and expected postsurgical changes. The practicing radiologist should be familiar with the most common perioperative complications, such as anastomotic leak, abscess, and hemorrhage, and be able to differentiate these entities from normal anticipated postoperative changes such as seroma, edema and fat stranding at the surgical site, and perivascular soft-tissue thickening. In addition to evaluation of the primary operative fossa, imaging plays a fundamental role in assessment of the adjacent organ systems secondarily affected after pancreatic surgery, such as vascular, biliary, and enteric complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This work aimed to explore the utility of CT radiomics with machine learning for distinguishing the pancreatic lesions prone to non-diagnostic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA). METHODS 498 patients with pancreatic EUS-FNA were retrospectively reviewed [Development cohort: 147 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC); Validation cohort: 37 PDAC]. Pancreatic lesions not PDAC were also tested exploratively. Radiomics extracted from contrast-enhanced CT was integrated with deep neural networks (DNN) after dimension reduction. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were performed for model evaluation. And, the explainability of the DNN model was analyzed by integrated gradients. RESULTS The DNN model was effective in distinguishing PDAC lesions prone to non-diagnostic EUS-FNA (Development cohort: AUC = 0.821, 95% CI: 0.742-0.900; Validation cohort: AUC = 0.745, 95% CI: 0.534-0.956). In all cohorts, the DNN model showed better utility than the logistic model based on traditional lesion characteristics with NRI >0 (p < 0.05). And, the DNN model had net benefits of 21.6% at the risk threshold of 0.60 in the validation cohort. As for the model explainability, gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) features contributed the most averagely and the first-order features were the most important in the sum attribution. CONCLUSION The CT radiomics-based DNN model can be a useful auxiliary tool for distinguishing the pancreatic lesions prone to nondiagnostic EUS-FNA and provide alerts for endoscopists preoperatively to reduce unnecessary EUS-FNA. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE This is the first investigation into the utility of CT radiomics-based machine learning in avoiding non-diagnostic EUS-FNA for patients with pancreatic masses and providing potential pre-operative assistance for endoscopists.

Abstract
PURPOSE To develop CT-based radiomics models for distinguishing between resectable PDAC and mass-forming pancreatitis (MFP) and to provide a non-invasive tool for cases of equivocal imaging findings with EUS-FNA needed. METHODS A total of 201 patients with resectable PDAC and 54 patients with MFP were included. Development cohort: patients without preoperative EUS-FNA (175 PDAC cases, 38 MFP cases); validation cohort: patients with EUS-FNA (26 PDAC cases, 16 MFP cases). Two radiomic signatures (LASSOscore, PCAscore) were developed based on the LASSO model and principal component analysis. LASSOCli and PCACli prediction models were established by combining clinical features with CT radiomic features. ROC analysis and decision curve analysis (DCA) were performed to evaluate the utility of the model versus EUS-FNA in the validation cohort. RESULTS In the validation cohort, the radiomic signatures (LASSOscore, PCAscore) were both effective in distinguishing between resectable PDAC and MFP (AUCLASSO = 0.743, 95% CI: 0.590-0.896; AUCPCA = 0.788, 95% CI: 0.639-0.938) and improved the diagnostic accuracy of the baseline onlyCli model (AUConlyCli = 0.760, 95% CI: 0.614-0.960) after combination with variables including age, CA19-9, and the double-duct sign (AUCPCACli = 0.880, 95% CI: 0.776-0.983; AUCLASSOCli = 0.825, 95% CI: 0.694-0.955). The PCACli model showed comparable performance to FNA (AUCFNA = 0.810, 95% CI: 0.685-0.935). In DCA, the net benefit of the PCACli model was superior to that of EUS-FNA, avoiding biopsies in 70 per 1000 patients at a risk threshold of 35%. CONCLUSIONS The PCACli model showed comparable performance with EUS-FNA in discriminating resectable PDAC from MFP.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We prospectively investigated whether cells derived from pancreatic cancers adhered to the puncture needle's external surface after endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) and whether wiping the needle with alcohol swabs removed residual cancer cells. METHODS The participants were 100 consecutive patients who underwent EUS-FNA for suspected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. In the first pass of EUS-FNA, we prepared aspiration and lavage cytological diagnosis materials from the lumen and external surface of the puncture needle, respectively. This was repeated in the second pass, although the needle's external surface was wiped with an alcohol swab. RESULTS The positivity rates of aspiration cytological diagnosis for the first and second passes were 67% and 72%, respectively. The positivity rates of lavage cytological diagnosis of the needle's external surface on the first and second passes were 20% and 3%, respectively. Wiping the needle's external surface with alcohol swabs significantly reduced the proportion of cancer cells detected ( P < 0.001). The accuracy rate based on all the collected specimens was 90%. There were no EUS-FNA-related adverse events. CONCLUSION Pancreatic cancer cells may adhere to the puncture needle's external surface after EUS-FNA. Wiping the needle with alcohol swabs after each puncture effectively removes residual cancer cells.

Abstract
A 66-year-old man underwent a single endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) session and distal pancreatectomy for the pancreatic body adenocarcinoma measuring 12 mm in diameter. At 3 years after surgery, we diagnosed needle tract seeding (NTS) and performed total gastrectomy. NTS can occur with small tumors or after a single session of EUS-FNA.

Gastric intramural metastasis caused by needle tract seeding after preoperative fine needle aspiration for pancreatic body cancer subsequently resected by total pancreatectomy: a case report and literature review. World J Surg Oncol 2023; 21:44. [PMID: 36782222 PMCID: PMC9926546 DOI: 10.1186/s12957-023-02914-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2022] [Accepted: 01/30/2023] [Indexed: 02/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, there has been an increase in the number of reports of needle tract seeding (NTS) of tumor cells after a biopsy as one of the adverse events related to endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA). In most of the previously reported cases of NTS in pancreatic cancer, distal pancreatectomy was performed as the initial surgery, following which metachronous metastasis was discovered in the gastric wall, whose localization matched the puncture route of the EUS-FNA. We report a case of early metastasis from pancreatic cancer in the gastric wall, which was postulated to be caused by NTS. Our patient underwent a total pancreatectomy (TP), and the NTS was resected synchronously. CASE PRESENTATION A 70-year-old woman with a diagnosis of pancreatic head-body-tail cancer presented to our department for surgery. Transgastric EUS-FNA and biopsy established the histological diagnosis in her case. We administered neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) to the patient and performed a TP. Histopathological and immunohistochemical examination subsequently confirmed the diagnosis of pT3N1aM1 pancreatic adenocarcinoma and its gastric metastasis, which was caused by NTS. It is postulated that the tumor cells of NTS had progressed to develop the metastatic lesion in the gastric wall during the NAC period. This was also resected during the initial surgery. The patient developed an early postoperative recurrence in the peritoneum 8 months after the surgery. CONCLUSION In pancreatic head cancer cases, the puncture route is often included in the resection area of radical surgery, and NTS is seldom considered as a potential clinical problem. However, NTS can progress rapidly and may be associated with early recurrence of malignancy. Therefore, when transgastrointestinal puncture is performed for the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, the treatment strategy should be established considering the potential development of NTS.

Abstract
Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, diagnosis and key points in the differential diagnosis of patients with gastric cancer (GC) with features of a submucosal tumour (GCSMT). Methods The clinical presentation and imaging findings of four GCSMT cases diagnosed at our centre from 2016 to 2021 were observed and their clinicopathological outcomes were analysed. The related literature was reviewed. Based on our collected data and the related literature, a total of 31 cases of GCSMT can be summarized. Results 22 out of 31 cases did not present obvious symptoms and were accidentally discovered during gastroscopic examination. Only 10 patients experienced symptoms such as gastric discomfort, upper abdominal swelling and pain, haematemesis, or haematochezia. The male to female ratio was 22:9 and the age of onset ranged from 40 to 81 years (median age: 63 years). Tumours were located in the upper and middle third of the stomach (24/31), and in the lower third(7/31). The tumour diameter ranged from 0.6 to 7.3 cm, with an average value of 2.5 cm. Endoscopically, the disease manifested as SMTs, with the gastric mucosal surface appearing normal. Most patients underwent radical gastrectomy for GC (80.6%, 25/31). The pathological diagnoses of the 31 cases of GCSMT included well- and moderately-differentiated adenocarcinoma (6/31), poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma or signet ring cell carcinoma 6/31), mucinous adenocarcinoma (9/31), lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (7/31), gastric adenocarcinoma of the fundic gland type (3/31). Stage T1b and T2 tumours accounted for 56.7% (17/30) and 26.7% (8/30) of all cases. Lymph node metastases were found in six cases (20.0%, 6/30), whereas distant metastasis was not observed in any of the cases. For the 16 patients whose follow-up data were available, the follow-up time was 5-66 months, during which recurrence or metastasis was not observed. Conclusion GCSMT is a rare disease that is often difficult to accurately diagnose through endoscopic biopsy. The importance of gaining an understanding of this disease lies in differentiating it from other SMTs (mostly mesenchymal tumours) to avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis and enable the early diagnosis and treatment of patients.

Needle-Tract Seeding of Pancreatic Cancer after EUS-FNA: A Systematic Review of Case Reports and Discussion of Management. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14246130. [PMID: 36551615 PMCID: PMC9777256 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14246130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2022] [Revised: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Needle-tract seeding (NTS) has been sporadically reported as complication of Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS)-guided aspiration (FNA) in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However, the evidence of its treatment and outcome is sparse. Adhering to PRISMA guidelines, we conducted a systematic review of EUS-FNA NTS cases of PDAC and analyzed their management and outcome. Up to September 2022, the search query retrieved forty-five cases plus an unpublished case from our center, for a total of forty-six; 43.6% were male, with a mean age of 68.6 years. Thirty-four patients (87.1%) underwent an initial surgical resection, with only 44.1% and 5.9% undergoing adjuvant and neoadjuvant chemotherapy, respectively, and 5.9% undergoing both. The NTS nodule was mostly located in the posterior gastric wall, developing at a median of 19 months after primary resection; 82.4% underwent surgical resection of the seeding, while for 17.6%, palliative chemotherapy treatment. Follow-up after NTS diagnosis and treatment was reported for only twenty-three patients: when NTS was treated with surgery, the median overall survival was 26.5 months compared to 15.5 if treated with radio/chemotherapy. NTS after EUS-FNA of PDAC occurs late and might be treated aggressively with good results. Interestingly, only a low number of patients developing NTS underwent chemotherapy for the primary cancer, suggesting its possible protective role.

Abstract
Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS)‐guided tissue acquisition (TA) performed by transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) is the main diagnostic procedure in mediastinal and hilar lymph node (LN) biopsy. EBUS‐guided intranodal forceps biopsy (EBUS‐IFB) and EBUS‐guided cryobiopsy can achieve higher diagnostic yield of lymphomas, uncommon tumors, and benign diseases. However, these techniques require the creation of a tract to insert biopsy devices, which may result in critical complications. Here, we report a rare case of airway stenosis (AS) that occurred after EBUS‐TA for mediastinal LN biopsy. An 80‐year‐old man had multiple pulmonary nodules and an enlarged mediastinal LN. EBUS‐TBNA and EBUS‐IFB were performed for histological diagnosis. Cutaneous adnexal carcinoma (CAC) was diagnosed. The patient underwent chemotherapy. Four months later, he was hospitalized for AS due to a tracheal tumor with dyspnea. Chest computed tomography and bronchoscopy revealed that the tracheal tumor was caused by invasion from the biopsied LN into the tracheal lumen by tract seeding (TS) caused by EBUS‐TA. Cryotherapy was performed. The tracheal tumor was pathologically consistent with CAC and is currently under control with radiotherapy. TS‐associated EBUS‐TA is rare but may increase in frequency with aggressive tissue sampling techniques. Bronchoscopists should perform EBUS‐TA with awareness of the potentially serious complications.

Abstract
Background: Endosonography-guided fine needle aspiration biopsy (EUS-FNA)-associated metachronous gastric seeding metastases (GSM) of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) represent a serious condition with insufficient evidence. Methods: Retrospective analysis of PDAC resections with a curative-intent, proven pathological diagnosis of PDAC, preoperative EUS-FNA and post-resection follow-up of at least 60 months. The systematic literature search of published data was used for the GSM growth evaluation using Pearson correlation and the linear regression analyses. Results: The inclusion criteria met 59/134 cases, 16 (27%) had retained needle tract (15 following distal pancreatectomy, 1 following pylorus-sparing head resection). In total, 3/16 cases (19%) developed identical solitary GSM (10–26th month following primary surgery) and were radically resected. A total of 30 published cases of PDAC GSM following EUS-FNA were identified. Lesion was resected in 20 distal pancreatectomy cases with complete information in 14 cases. A correlation between the metastasis size and time (r = 0.612) was proven. The regression coefficient b = 0.72 expresses the growth of 0.72 mm per month. Conclusions: The GSM represent a preventable and curable condition. A remarkably high number of GSM following EUS-FNA was identified, leading to follow-up recommendation of EUS-FNA sampled patients. Multimodal management (gastric resection, adjuvant chemotherapy) may prolong survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The management of pancreatic body and tail lesions is underexposed. It remains unclear whether endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) increases the accuracy of the preoperative workup. This study assessed the diagnostic value and safety of EUS in addition to cross-sectional imaging in a surgical cohort of patients with pancreatic body or tail lesions. METHODS A multicenter retrospective cohort study was performed of patients who underwent distal pancreatectomy from 2010 to 2017. The composite primary outcome was the additional value of EUS, defined as: (a) EUS confirmed an uncertain diagnosis on cross-sectional imaging, (b) EUS was correct in case of discrepancy with cross-sectional imaging, or (c) EUS provided tissue diagnosis for neoadjuvant treatment. Furthermore, serious adverse events and needle tract seeding were assessed. RESULTS In total, 181 patients were included, of whom 123 (68%) underwent EUS besides cross-sectional imaging. Postoperative pathology was heterogeneous: 91 was malignant, 49 premalignant, 41 benign. Most lesions were solid (n = 117). EUS had additional value in 59/123 (48%) patients; 27/50 (54%) of cystic and 32/73 (44%) of solid lesions. No serious adverse event or needle tract seeding following EUS occurred. CONCLUSION EUS had additional value besides cross-sectional imaging in half of the patients and showed low associated risks.

Abstract
We report two cases of patients with gastric linitis plastica (GLP), in which the histopathological diagnosis was made by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) using a Franseen-tip needle. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy findings showed mucosal swelling and poor distensibility of the gastric antrum. Abdominal computed tomography findings showed significant thickening of the gastric wall at the antrum. Conventional endoscopic and bite-on-bite biopsy were attempted but resulted in failure to diagnose the lesions. We performed EUS-FNB to obtain histopathological samples from a deeper site, which confirmed the diagnosis. We considered this method safe and effective for the diagnosis of GLP.

Possible tumour cell reimplantation during curative endoscopic therapy of superficial Barrett's carcinoma. Gut 2022; 71:277-286. [PMID: 33441377 DOI: 10.1136/gutjnl-2020-322723] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2020] [Revised: 12/10/2020] [Accepted: 12/18/2020] [Indexed: 12/08/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Endoscopic resection has been established as curative therapy for superficial cancer arising from Barrett's oesophagus (BE); recurrences are very rare. Based on a case series with unusual and massive early recurrences, we analyse the issue of tumour cell reimplantation. METHODS This hypothesis was developed on the basis of two out of seven patients treated by circumferential (n=6) or nearly circumferential (n=1) en bloc and R0 endoscopic resection of T1 neoplastic BE. Subsequently, a prospective histocytological analysis of endoscope channels and accessories was performed in 2 phases (cytohistological analysis; test for cell viability) in 22 different oesophageal carcinoma patients undergoing endoscopy. Finally, cultures from two oesophageal adenocarcinoma cell lines were incubated with different triamcinolone concentrations (0.625-10 mg/mL); cell growth was determined on a Multiwell plate reader. RESULTS Cancer regrowth in the two suspicious cases (male, 78/71 years) occurred 7 and 1 months, respectively, after curative tumour resection. Subsequent surgery showed advanced tumours (T2) with lymph node metastases; one patient died. On cytohistological examinations of channels and accessories, suspicious/neoplastic cells were found in 4/10 superficial and in all 5 advanced cancers. Further analyses in seven further advanced adenocarcinoma cases showed viable cells in two channel washing specimens. Finally, cell culture experiments demonstrated enhanced tumour cell growth by triamcinolone after 24 hours compared with controls. CONCLUSIONS Tumour cell reimplanation from contaminated endoscopes and accessories is a possible cause of local recurrence after curative endoscopic therapy for superficial Barrett carcinoma; also, corticosteroid injection could have promoted tumour regrowth in these cases.

Abstract
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a first-line procedure for definitive tissue diagnosis of pancreatic cancer because of its high accuracy and low complication rate. The overall sensitivity of EUS-FNA for the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is approximately 90%; however, its diagnostic ability for small lesions (<10 mm) remains limited. Although EUS-FNA is a relatively safe procedure, with an overall morbidity of ≤2%, it should be noted that needle tract seeding (NTS) can occur after EUS-FNA, which may affect the patient prognosis negatively. In patients with resected pancreatic tumors, preoperative EUS-FNA is not associated with an increased risk of postoperative recurrence. However, NTS after EUS-FNA for resectable pancreatic body and tail cancer has been highlighted recently, particularly by Japanese endoscopists. Thus, the use of preoperative EUS-FNA for the diagnosis of resectable pancreatic body and tail cancer has become a clinical dilemma that challenges gastroenterologists and must be carefully considered on a case-by-case basis by weighing the benefits and risks. This review summarizes the pros and cons of performing EUS-FNA in patients with resectable pancreatic body and tail cancer and provides valuable insight for gastroenterologists treating pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a biopsy technique widely used to diagnose pancreatic tumors because of its high sensitivity and specificity. Although needle-tract seeding caused by EUS-FNA has been recently reported, dissemination of pancreatic cancer cells is generally considered to be a rare complication that does not affect patient prognosis. However, the frequency of dissemination and needle-tract seeding appears to have been underestimated. We present a case of peritoneal dissemination of pancreatic cancer due to preoperative EUS-FNA.
CASE SUMMARY An 81-year-old man was referred to the Department of Surgery of our hospital in Japan owing to the detection of a pancreatic mass on computed tomography during medical screening. Trans-gastric EUS-FNA revealed that the mass was an adenocarcinoma; hence laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with lympha-denectomy was performed. No intraoperative peritoneal dissemination and liver metastasis were visually detected, and pelvic lavage cytology was negative for carcinoma cells. The postoperative surgical specimen was negative for carcinoma cells at the dissected margin and the cut end margin; however, pathological findings revealed adenocarcinoma cells on the peritoneal surface proximal to the needle puncture site, and the cells were suspected to be disseminated via EUS- FNA. Hence, the patient received adjuvant therapy with S-1 (tegafur, gimeracil, and oteracil potassium); however, computed tomography performed 5 mo after surgery revealed liver metastasis and cancerous peritonitis. The patient received palliative therapy and died 8 mo after the operation.
CONCLUSION The indications of EUS-FNA should be carefully considered to avoid iatrogenic dissemination, especially for cancers in the pancreatic body or tail.

Abstract
Considerable progress has been made recently in the use of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) to diagnose intra-luminal gastrointestinal lesions and extra-luminal lesions near the gastrointestinal tract. Numerous reports have indicated that EUS-FNA has high diagnostic performance and safety, which has led to the routine use of EUS-FNA and an increasing number of cases. Thus, while EUS-FNA has a low rate of complications, endoscopists may encounter these complications as the number of cases increases. Infrequent reports have also described life-threatening complications. Therefore, endoscopists should possess a comprehensive understanding of the complications of EUS-FNA, which include hemorrhage, perforation, infection, and acute pancreatitis, as well as their management. This review examines the available evidence regarding the complications associated with EUS-FNA, and the findings will be useful for ensuring that endoscopists perform EUS-FNA safely and appropriately.

Abstract
Quality assessment and improvement of an endoscopic service has emerged as a basic component of everyday gastrointestinal endoscopy. In order to ensure a high level of quality, a series of actions must be adopted when performing an endoscopic examination. Nonetheless, quality still remains a qualitative parameter; thus, implementation of specific indicators of quality is warranted. Irrespective of the nature of the endoscopic procedure, quality indicators usually refer to either structural properties of an endoscopy unit (e.g., examination availability), procedural factors (e.g., diagnostic accuracy), or patient outcomes (e.g., occurrence of an adverse event related to performance of an endoscopic procedure). Moreover, they are usually classified into 3 distinct sections, according to the phase of the procedure they relate to: i.e., before, during, and after the examination. The aim of this review is to present measures that need to be adopted in order to reach an optimal quality level during an endoscopic ultrasound examination and to provide up-to-date data regarding the respective quality indicators implicated.

Abstract
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided minimally invasive tissue acquisition can be performed by two approaches as follows: Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) and endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB). These have been evolved into leading approaches and widely used for the histological diagnosis of tumors in the gastrointestinal tract and adjacent organs. However, the role of EUS-FNA and EUS-FNB in disease diagnosis and evaluation remains controversial. Although the incidence of surgery-associated complications remains low, the consequences of needle tract seeding can be serious or even life-threatening. Recently, increasing case reports of needle tract seeding are emerging, especially caused by EUS-FNA. This complication needs serious consideration. In the present work, we integrated these case reports and the related literature, and summarized the relevant cases and technical characteristics of needle tract seeding caused by EUS-FNA and EUS-FNB. Collectively, our findings provided valuable insights into the prevention and reduction of such serious complication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND and study aims Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) can be difficult to detect intra-operatively. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of preoperative endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle tattooing (EUS-FNT) to facilitate intra-operative detection of pNETs. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixteen patients with pNETs (8 insulinoma and 8 non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors) underwent EUS-FNT. The procedure was carried out using the conventional curvilinear EUS. Tattooing was performed by intralesional injection of 1-2 mL of Spot® ink (Spot®, GI Supply, Comp Hill, PA, US) using a standard 22 gauge EUS-FNA needle. RESULTS All identified pNETs could be tattooed in one session. The procedure was well tolerated in all patients without any complication. The time interval between tattooing and surgery was between 1 and 565 days (mean of 52 days). Nine patients underwent open and seven laparoscopic surgery. The tattooed lesions could be recognized in all but one patient. In one patient, a small hematoma secondary to the EUS-FNT was observed. Pathological examination of the resection specimen showed local R0 resection in all cases, and no interference with the specimen evaluation was encountered. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that EUS-guided FNT is a safe and useful method to mark preoperatively small (≤ 2 cm) pNETs.
