| Core Tip |
Endoscopic ultrasound-guided liver biopsy (EUS-LB) has recently been introduced as an endoscopic method for obtaining liver biopsy in patients with suspected parenchymal liver disease. However, the efficacy and safety of this approach remain unclear. Furthermore, some uncertainty exists in the most appropriate needle size and suction technique to achieve an optimal histological specimen. This multicenter retrospective study found a high diagnostic yield for EUS-LB with a low rate of serious adverse events. In addition, the use of a 19-gauge fine needle biopsy needle, the wet-heparin suction technique, and performing ≤ 2 passes was associated with improved quality of the specimen obtained without increasing the risk of adverse events. |
