Abstrakt: This article compares the diagnostic yield of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) and biopsy (FNB) in solid pancreatic lesions (SPLs) with a diameter of 15 mm or less. The study included 368 patients who underwent either FNA or FNB, with FNB outperforming FNA in terms of diagnostic accuracy and sample adequacy. The study also found that the use of FNA and a final diagnosis of benign conditions negatively impacted accuracy. The overall adverse event rate was low, and the feasibility of evaluating the Ki-67 index in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (Pan-NETs) was demonstrated. The study suggests that FNB may be superior to FNA in terms of performance, even with fewer passes performed. [Extracted from the article]
