Core Tip |
Subepithelal lesions are found relatively often on cross sectional imaging or during endoscopy. Conventional endoscopic biopsies will not reveal the histological diagnosis in most cases. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) with fine needle aspiration or biopsy allows the diagnosis in 50%-90% but requires specialist skills and equipment and is expensive. Tunnel biopsies taken in simple bite-on-bite technique allow histological diagnosis in more than 50% of subepithelial lesions. If tunnel biopsies are taken at the index endoscopy, further follow-up endoscopies and EUS investigations can be avoided in many cases. |
