A pilot study of EUS-guided fiducial insertion for the multidisciplinary management of gastric cancer
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS The 5-year survival rates for gastric cancer remain poor despite evolving therapies, and fiducial insertion via endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is novel within this setting. We aimed to assess the feasibility of fiducial insertion for response assessment and anatomic localization in patients with gastric cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS A prospective phase II feasibility stu...
متن کاملFiducial Placement for Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy under Only Endoscopic Ultrasonography Guidance in Pancreatic and Hepatic Malignancy: Practical Feasibility and Safety
BACKGROUND/AIMS Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for gastrointestinal malignancies requires the placement of fiducials to guide treatment delivery. This study aimed to determine the safety and technical feasibility of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided fiducial placement for SBRT. METHODS From November 2010 to August 2012, 32 consecutive patients who were scheduled to receive S...
متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound-guided gold fiducial marker placement for intraoperative identification of insulinoma.
Insulinomas are the most common functioning pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm, comprising 30%–45% of these tumors. Although laparoscopic resection is safe, minimally invasive, and is associated with shorter length of hospital stay, tumor localization at surgery can be challenging. We describe endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided fiducial placement as a new technique for intraoperative localizati...
متن کاملEUS-Guided Biliary Drainage
The echoendoscopic biliary drainage is an option to treat obstructive jaundices when ERCP drainage fails. These procedures compose alternative methods to the side of surgery and percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage, and it was only possible by the continuous development and improvement of echoendoscopes and accessories. The development of linear setorial array echoendoscopes in early 1990...
متن کاملTechnical advances in endoscopic ultrasound-guided fiducial placement for the treatment of pancreatic cancer
Radiation therapy has an important role in the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic pancreatic cancer and can be used alone or in conjunction with surgery and/or systemic chemotherapy. Because of the challenge of delivering an accurate and optimal radiation dose, image-guided radiation therapy can be used to improve targeting. Fiducial markers can be placed in the tumor and used for loca...
