Research Abstract |
The usefulness of contrast-enhanced harmonic endoscopic ultrasonography for characterization of solid tumors in the pancreas, characterization of intra-abdominal lesions of undetermined origin and estimation of malignant potential of gastrointestinal stromal tumors was evaluated. In comparison with the other imaging methods, this novel technique improved the diagnostic ability for these diseases. Endoscopic ultrasonography guided broad plexus neurolysis achieved better pain relief than endoscopic ultrasonography guided celiac plexus neurolysis. Development of endoscopic ultrasonography guided drainage allowed salvage drainage treatment for obstruction of bilio-pancreatic system after unsuccessful transpapillary or surgical drainage.
