The diagnostic accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound vs. contrast-enhanced computed tomography in local staging of pancreatic adenocarcinoma: a bi-national multicenter study.

Background: Identification of pancreatic cancer (PC) local invasion is crucial to optimize patients' selection for surgery.

Aims: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) in local staging of PC.

Methods: We performed a multicenter study including all patients with PC who underwent surgery.

Factors Predicting Type I Gastric Neuroendocrine Neoplasia Recurrence: A Single-Center Study.

Type I gastric neuroendocrine neoplasms (gNENs) are associated with atrophic gastritis and have a high recurrence rate, which means frequent endoscopies are required. The objective of this study was to identify factors predicting the local recurrence of type I gNENs. The clinical course and the pathological and biochemical data of patients with type I gNENs treated at Bnai Zion Medical Center between 2006 and 2022 were analyzed retrospectively.
