NCT03130140

Brief Summary

The technique of macroscopic on-site evaluation (MOSE) has recently been advocated for estimating the adequacy of a core specimen for histological diagnosis during EUS-FNA using a 19-gauge needle. How it compares to the conventional technique of tissue acquisition during EUS-FNA is uncertain. The objective of this study is to evaluate the quantity and quality of tissue, and the diagnostic ability of MOSE when compared with the conventional combined histologic-cytologic analysis.

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Diagnostic yield: Proportion of patients with adequate tissue for diagnosis obtained by EUS FNA

    proportion of patients with adequate tissue for diagnosis obtained by EUS FNA

    4 weeks

Study Arms (2)

Macroscopic on-site evaluation

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

EUS-FNA perform with a 19-gauge needle with macroscopic on-site evaluation.

Procedure: Macroscopic on-site evaluation

Control

SHAM COMPARATOR

EUS-FNA perform with a 19-gauge needle with conventional techniques.

Other: Control

Interventions

Macroscopic on-site evaluation: any aspirated material on a glass slide for inspection of the presence of a macroscopic visible core (MVC). Length of MVC will be measured to determine the adequacy of that puncture.
