■评估不明确的胆道狭窄具有挑战性。我们分析了放射学的诊断性能,EUS,和ERCP。
■前瞻性纳入所有因EUS和ERCP评估不明胆道狭窄的患者。放射学的数据,EUS,ERCP,并记录组织取样。分别和联合分析诊断方式,专注于PSC。
■在2013年至2020年之间,包括78例患者;31%患有PSC。本研究未进行胆道镜检查。最终诊断为62%的患者胆管狭窄为良性,38%为恶性。模态之间的差异是数字的,不重要。这些方法在所有患者中显示出78%至83%的准确性,在PSC患者中显示出75%至83%的准确性。放射学和EUS的组合在所有患者中显示出94%的最高敏感性,在PSC中显示出100%的敏感性。组织取样显示所有患者的最高特异性为93%,在PSC中为89%。在22例合并EUS的病例中,ERCP,和组织取样,准确性,灵敏度,特异性为82%,70%,92%,分别。在意向诊断分析和符合方案分析之间观察到微小差异。4%的病例记录了不良事件。
■EUS和ERCP与组织取样相结合对于排除不明胆道狭窄的恶性肿瘤似乎是有用且安全的。在怀疑恶性肿瘤减少的情况下,放射学用EUS可能就足够了。
UNASSIGNED: Assessing unclear biliary strictures is challenging. We analyzed the diagnostic performance of radiology, EUS, and
ERCP.
UNASSIGNED: All patients referred for EUS and
ERCP to assess an unclear biliary stricture were prospectively included. The data from radiology, EUS,
ERCP, and tissue sampling were recorded. The diagnostic modalities were analyzed separately and in combination, with a focus on PSC.
UNASSIGNED: Between 2013 and 2020, 78 patients were included; 31% had PSC. A cholangioscopy was not performed in this study. The final diagnosis indicated that the biliary stricture was benign in 62% of the patients and malignant in 38%. The differences among the modalities were numerical, not significant. The modalities showed an accuracy between 78 and 83% in all the patients and between 75 and 83% in the patients with PSC. The combination of radiology and EUS showed the highest sensitivity of 94% in all the patients and a sensitivity of 100% in PSC. Tissue sampling showed the highest specificity of 93% in all patients and 89% in PSC. In 22 cases with combined EUS,
ERCP, and tissue sampling, the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were 82%, 70%, and 92%, respectively. Minor differences were observed between the intention-to-diagnose analysis and the per-protocol analysis. Adverse events were recorded in 4% of cases.
UNASSIGNED: The combination of EUS and
ERCP with tissue sampling seems to be useful and safe for excluding malignancy in unclear biliary strictures. In cases with a reduced suspicion of malignancy, radiology with an EUS may be sufficient.
