Core Tip	New operative procedures have been developed on the principle of the endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided puncture. A hybrid probe combining radiofrequency with cryotechnology is now available, to be passed through the operative channel of the echoendoscope into the tumor to create an area of ablation. The potential advantage of an ablation device employed under EUS control is the real-time imaging guidance into a deep target like the pancreas which is extremely difficult to reach by a percutaneous approach.
