Article Abstract
Background: Recently, EUS-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) using a Franseen needle was developed for histological tissue acquisition. However, the yield of a 25G Franseen needle when acquiring histological core tissue has been unclear.
Patients And Methods: We performed a prospective, multicenter, and observational cohort study that included 100 solid lesions scheduled for EUS-FNB using a 25G Franseen needle at eight centers in Hokkaido, Japan. Only EUS-FNB specimens acquired at the first pass were evaluated without a rapid on-site evaluation. The tissue acquisition rate, acquisition rate of an adequate specimen for histological assessment, the quality of tissue sample, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), diagnostic accuracy, and adverse events were evaluated.
Results: We analyzed a total of 100 solid lesions in 100 patients. The patients were 57 males and 43 females with a median age of 70 years. The technical success rate was 100%. The tissue acquisition rate was 95.0%. The acquisition rate of an adequate specimen for histological assessment was 82.0%. The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, and diagnostic accuracy were 87.0%, 100%, 100%, 40.0%, and 88.0%, respectively. The adverse event rate was 1.0%, and it was reported in only one patient who had a moderate pancreatic fistula.
Conclusions: EUS-FNB using the 25G Franseen needle was feasible, and adequate histological core tissue samples were acquired with this method.

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biopsy of healthy pig pancreas - Towards the histological diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis.
Rev Esp Enferm Dig
September 2024
Gastroenterology, Hospital Clínico Universitario de Santiago.
Background: diagnosis of early chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a challenge due to the lack of accurate methods. The ability of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guided biopsy to obtain pancreatic core tissue samples in patients with minimal changes of CP and its potential use for the histological diagnosis of early CP are unknown. The aim of the study was to evaluate the ability of different EUS-guided biopsy core needles to obtain histological samples of healthy pig pancreas.

Article Synopsis
- Gastrointestinal subepithelial lesions (SELs) can be benign or malignant, and diagnosing them accurately using endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) is challenging, especially for smaller lesions (≤ 2 cm).
- A retrospective study indicated that over 50% of patients with SELs of this size were diagnosed as gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs), highlighting the necessity of using effective EUS-FNB techniques.
- This multicenter study aims to compare the effectiveness of two types of EUS-FNB needles (22G Fork-tip vs. 22G Franseen) in obtaining adequate tissue samples from SELs ≤ 2 cm, with different endpoints focusing on sample quality and procedural outcomes.

In this prospective study, we evaluated the diagnostic yield and safety of two endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) biopsy techniques - mediastinal cryobiopsy (EBUS-MCB) and Franseen tip needle biopsy (EBUS-ANB) - in patients with undiagnosed mediastinal lymphadenopathy. The study included 30 patients who underwent both EBUS-MCB and EBUS-ANB, with four biopsies taken from each patient using both methods. The results demonstrated that EBUS-MCB provided a higher diagnostic yield (96.

Background: The choice between 22-gauge endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) and EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) for histological diagnosis of type 1 autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is unclear. We retrospectively examined the detection rate of histological findings for AIP using EUS-FNA/FNB.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with type 1 AIP using EUS-FNB (Franseen needle) or EUS-FNA (conventional needle) with 22-gauge needles at our hospital between 2012 and 2023 were included in this study.

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates the effectiveness of macroscopic on-site evaluation (MOSE) during endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration/biopsy (EUS-FNA/FNB) in diagnosing solid lesions, particularly focusing on histological core sample adequacy.
- Conducted across 16 medical centers in Egypt, Iraq, and Morocco, the study involved over 1000 patients and revealed that a significant majority of biopsied samples were adequate for histological evaluation, demonstrating a high diagnostic yield.
- Results indicated that FNB needles performed best in terms of sensitivity and sample quality, highlighting the potential of MOSE as a valuable alternative to traditional rapid on-site evaluation methods.
