Case report demonstrates successful EUS-TA of a focal liver lesion via duodenum, indicating new procedural approaches.
In recent years, endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA) has become increasingly common for evaluating focal liver lesions [1] [2]. However, accessing focal liver lesions from the duodenum remains technically challenging. Here, we report a case in which EUS-TA for a focal liver lesion was successfully performed via the duodenum by adjusting the orientation of the echoendoscope under fluoroscopic guidance.
