| Core Tip |
This meta-analysis examined the diagnostic value of conventional endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) for lymph node metastasis (LNM) in upper gastrointestinal neoplasia. The pooled analyses of 2986 patients from 22 studies performed herein show that conventional EUS has certain clinical value and can assist in the detection of LNM in upper gastrointestinal neoplasia, but it cannot be used as a confirmatory or exclusionary test. More high-quality studies are needed to further verify the diagnostic value of EUS and determine the best diagnostic criteria. |
