Brief Summary
Background: Preoperative pathologic diagnosis of subepithelial tumor (SET) can improve clinical decision making. Although EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) is currently considered the standard method for sampling SET, its diagnostic yield is generally suboptimal. EUS-guided fine needle biopsy (FNB) of SET is safe and feasible with adequate histology obtained. Objective: To compare the diagnostic accuracy of EUS-FNA and EUS-FNB.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Diagnostic accuracy (proportion of correctly classified subjects (ture positive + true negative) among all subjects ) , compared to the gold standard diagnosis
Gold standard diagnosis is defined as; 1. in operated patients; histological assessment of the surgical resection specimen 2. in non-operated patients; based on the conclusions of the diagnostic work-up (combined outcomes of FNA and FNB samples and imaging studies)
12 months
Study Arms (2)
EUS-FNA
ACTIVE COMPARATORDevice: 22G FNA needle
EUS-FNB
EXPERIMENTALDevice: 20G FNB needle
