Outline of Final Research Achievements

Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided through-the-needle cyst wall biopsy (EUS-TNCB) was performed in two patients. A 71-year-old female had 32mm cystic lesion in the head of the pancreas. EUS-TNCB revealed fragmented epithelial cells with small nucleus with interstitial fibrotic tissue. A 48-year-old male had 20mm cystic lesion in the body of the pancreas. EUS-TNCB revealed no epithelial cells but interstitial fibrotic tissue. Gene mutation analysis by next-generation sequencer could not detect any mutation in both samples.
