Comparison of multislice computed tomography and endoscopic ultrasonography with operative and histological findings in suspected pancreatic and periampullary malignancy

Abstract: MSCT is the imaging method of choice for pancreatic and periampullary tumours. Routine EUS should be reserved for those with borderline resectability on MSCT.

“…12,26 The accurate determination of (loco) regional LNM by endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) even seems similar. [42][43][44] Extra-regional lymph nodes may not be visible on EUS. This suggests that in case of clinical consequences such as aborting a surgical exploration, standard intraoperative sampling of hepatic-artery and para-aortic lymph nodes should be performed.…”

“…Twenty-two papers (10%) matched the selection criteria while the remainder (197, 90%) were excluded [2,[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] . Seventeen articles were prospective [2,[4][5][6][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]18,[20][21][22][23][24] and five retrospective [7,8,16,17,19] . In all studies radiological findings where compared with both intraoperative findings and final histopathological analysis that were considered gold-standards of comparison.…”

“…The sensitivity of EUS for diagnosing the primary tumour has been reported in thirteen studies (Table 2) [4,6,7,[9][10][11][12][13]15,16,18,19,22] and the range varied between 92% and 100% [9,10,15,16,22] . The overall sensitivity estimated by the sum of the total true positives / total number of patients was 97% (474/488) (Table 6) [4,6,7,[9][10][11][12][13]15,16,18,19,22] .…”
