Modified Wet Suction Versus Capillary Techniques for EUS Guided Fine Needle Aspiration and Biopsy of Solid Lesions

NCT02919553 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2020-10-20

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare two particular techniques of tissue (capillary vs wet-suction techniques) sampling during endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration/biopsy (EUS-FNA/FNB) of a solid lesion to determine the diagnostic yield and procedure logistics (e.g. procedure time).

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

modified wet-suction technique

Normal saline will be present in this needle, and once in the lesion of interest the suction will be re-established and the needle will be moved in a to-and-fro motion to collect the sample of interest. Then the sample will be collected.

PROCEDURE

Capillary "slow pull" technique

The needle will be introduced into the lesion of interest and using the to-and-fro motion, collect the sample. The needle will then be withdrawn and the sample will then be collected.
