This article presents the findings of a retrospective international multicenter study on solid pancreatic lesions visualized through endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in the Gulf Council Countries (GCC). The study included 193 patients from eight tertiary care centers in Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait. The most common symptoms reported by patients were abdominal pain, weight loss, and jaundice. Adenocarcinoma was the most frequent diagnosis, with a median age of diagnosis at 63 years, slightly lower than the worldwide reported age. The study highlights the need for further regional data and studies to develop targeted screening and management strategies for affected individuals. [Extracted from the article] |
