| Core Tip |
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided sampling is the first diagnostic option for gastrointestinal sub¬mucosal and pancreatic lesions. In the past, fine needle aspiration (FNA) was the main method to obtain tissue for histological examination, however, it was associated with limited diagnostic accuracy. In the last decade, fine needle biopsy (FNB) needle was introduced into clinical practice, which allows for more tissue acquisition and improvement in diagnostic yield. In this updated minireview, we provide an overview on the role of EUS-FNA and FNB in certain gastrointestinal lesions. In addition, we provide a summary on the efficacy and safety profile of each procedure with reporting the recent guidelines recommendation. |
