Recurrent Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma Diagnosed With Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Fine Needle Aspiration 18 Years After Initial Surgery.

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is an alternative approach to sample kidney lesions that is less commonly used compared to percutaneous CT or ultrasound guidance. In this case, we present a 70-year-old female who was diagnosed with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) 18 years post-nephrectomy with EUS-FNA in conjunction with immunohistochemistry. This case report supports the use of EUS-FNA in conjunction with immunohistochemistry as a robust technique that can safely and effectively diagnose recurrent renal cell carcinoma.

Fine needle aspiration of hepatic angiomyolipoma with extramedullary hematopoiesis: A case report.

Angiomyolipoma, a perivascular epithelioid cell tumour, is easily identifiable as a benign tumour in the kidneys. However, when occurring in extrarenal sites it can mimic malignancy (Cancer Cytopathol. 2017;125:257).

Quality of reporting in endoscopic ultrasound: Results of an international multicenter survey (the QUOREUS study).

The endoscopic report has a key role in quality improvement for gastrointestinal endoscopy. High quality standards have been set by the endoscopic societies in this field. Unlike other digestive endoscopy procedures, the quality of reporting in endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has not been thoroughly evaluated and a reference standard is lacking.

An international, multi-institution survey of the use of EUS in the diagnosis of pancreatic cystic lesions.

Background And Objectives: Currently, pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) are recognized with increasing frequency and have become a more common finding in clinical practice. EUS is challenging in the diagnosis of PCLs and evidence-based decisions are lacking in its application. This study aimed to develop strong recommendations for the use of EUS in the diagnosis of PCLs, based on the experience of experts in the field.
