| Core Tip |
The major complications of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) include perforation, bleeding, infection, acute pancreatitis when sampling pancreatic lesions, bile peritonitis, needle tract seeding where tumor cells are deposited along the needle track, and device-related malfunctions. The preventive strategies for complications following EUS-FNB include careful pre-procedural planning, technical efficiency during the procedure, and appropriate post-procedure care. EUS-FNB needs specific ethical considerations, which involve the balancing of the need for accurate histological diagnosis with patient safety, procedural risks, and informed consent. The proper use of suitable strategies to avoid complications will help the endosonographer to perform EUS-FNB safely and effectively. |
