EUS-guided interventional management of pancreatic tumor
چکیده انگلیسی

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related death worldwide. Most patients have advanced disease at diagnosis, resulting in a very poor prognosis. Hence there is a need for newer therapeutic strategies and novel approaches to the management of these tumors. Advances in endoscopic ultrasound have brought a change in its role from being solely a diagnostic tool to having a therapeutic role in gastrointestinal malignancies. Interventional endoscopic ultrasound is useful in the palliation of pancreatic adenocarcinoma as well as in the treatment of cystic tumors of the pancreas. This review focuses on the present status of interventional endoscopic ultrasound for pancreatic tumor.
