Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is a standard procedure for precise histological diagnosis of pancreas tumors, but it is sometimes difficult to obtain adequate specimens. EUS Sonopsy CY® is a newly designed needle with original features. This randomized study will compare the tissue collection rate of EUS Sonopsy CY® to that of a conventional needle in EUS-FNA. The major eligibility criteria are as follows: Patients with a pancreatic mass referred for EUSFNA; age 20 years, and performance status＜4. The primary outcome is the tissue collection rate. This study will elucidate the efficacy of EUS Sonopsy CY®.

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

Contrast-enhanced harmonic endoscopic ultrasonography (CH-EUS) with contrast agent enabled us to assess the hemodynamics closely, despite limited data in pancreatic tumors. We have initiated a prospective, single arm, and non-randomized study to clarify the accuracy and safety of CH-EUS with Sonazoid and time-intensity curve (TIC) analysis for diagnosing benign or malignant pancreatic tumors. A total of 200 patients will undergo CH-EUS and TIC analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis will be used to determine the optimal parameter cutoff values for TIC analysis. This will clarify whether CH-EUS and TIC can further improve the diagnosis of pancreatic tumors over conventional EUS.

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

Recently, endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided ethanol ablation for small pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (p-NETs) has been reported. However, the efficacy and safety of the technique remain unclear. We have launched a prospective pilot study of EUS-guided ethanol ablation for p-NETs. The major eligibility criteria are the presence of a pathologically diagnosed grade (G) 1 or G2 p-NET, a tumor size of 2cm, and being a poor candidate for surgery. A total of 5 patients will be treated. The primary endpoint will be the complete ablation rate at 1 month after treatment.

Transplantation 100 ( 7 ) 1500 - 6 2016.7

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

BACKGROUND: To evaluate the outcomes and investigate the factors associated with restricture after endoscopic treatment. METHODS: Between April 2001 and July 2014, 98 patients experienced biliary anastomotic stricture (BAS) after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) with duct-to-duct reconstruction, and all were first referred to Okayama University Hospital for endoscopic stent deployment. When deployment was unsuccessful, a percutaneous transhepatic procedure was used. Treatment outcomes, including stricture resolution, BAS recurrence, and risk factors of BAS recurrence, were evaluated retrospectively. RESULTS: Successful stent deployment was achieved in 90 of 98 patients (91.8%) by both procedures. Among the 90 patients, stricture resolution was eventually observed in 72. The median number of endoscopic retrograde cholangiographies performed was 5. After a median follow-up period of 48.8 months from stent removal, BAS recurrence that required intervention occurred in 22 patients (30.6%). In multivariate analysis, portal vein stenosis after LDLT was associated with BAS recurrence after endoscopic treatment (P = 0.03). Among the 22 patients who required reintervention, 16 (73%) had their stents removed, and recurrence after retreatment occurred in 3 patients (18.8%). CONCLUSIONS: Endoscopic treatment is a useful procedure for the treatment for BAS after LDLT with duct-to-duct reconstruction. Portal vein stenosis may be one of the risks associated with the recurrence of BAS.

Surgical endoscopy 30 ( 3 ) 1249 - 54 2016.3

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

BACKGROUND: Hepatolithiasis is a postoperative complication of hepaticojejunostomy (HJ) performed for various pancreatobiliary diseases. Hepatolithiasis can cause repeated cholangitis. Complete stone removal and bile stasis elimination are therefore necessary. Here, we evaluated the effectiveness of peroral direct cholangioscopy (PDCS) using an ultraslim endoscope for treating hepatolithiasis in HJ patients. METHODS: We studied 14 patients with hepatolithiasis who underwent bowel reconstruction with HJ between April 2012 and May 2014. Diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiography using a short double-balloon enteroscope (DBE) was initially performed. Following stone removal, the DBE was exchanged for an ultraslim endoscope through the balloon overtube for PDCS. RESULTS: The success rate of PDCS procedure was 85.7% (12/14). In 5 of 12 (41.7%) patients with successful PDCS, the residual stones were detected and removed completely using a 5-Fr basket catheter and suction after normal saline irrigation. In the remaining 7 (58.3%) patients, no residual stone was detected. The median procedure time was 14 min (range 8-36) with no serious postoperative complications. The median follow-up time after PDCS was 21 months (range 5-26), and only 1 patient (8.3%) had IHBD stone recurrence with an anastomotic stricture. CONCLUSIONS: PDCS using an ultraslim endoscope appears to be useful for detecting and removing residual stones following hepatolithiasis treatment using a DBE. The combined use of a DBE and PDCS may reduce the risk of hepatolithiasis recurrence in HJ patients.

Endoscopy 48 ( 1 ) 26 - 34 2016.1

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS: Preoperative diagnosis of the pathological grade of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) is difficult. This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of contrast-enhanced harmonic endoscopic ultrasonography (CH-EUS) with time - intensity curve analysis in differentiating between low or intermediate grade dysplasia (LGD/IGD) and high grade dysplasia or invasive carcinoma (HGD/invasive carcinoma) in IPMNs and to assess correlation between the time - intensity curve parameters and tumor microvessel density. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Data from 30 patients with resected IPMNs (14 LGD/IGD, 16 HGD/invasive carcinoma) who underwent CH-EUS with time - intensity curve analysis were evaluated retrospectively. Time - intensity curve parameters and the microvessel density of the mural nodule were compared between the HGD/invasive carcinoma and LGD/IGD groups; the diagnostic accuracy of the time - intensity curve parameters was evaluated. RESULTS: The echo intensity change and echo intensity reduction rate of the mural nodule, and the nodule/pancreatic parenchyma contrast ratio were significantly higher in the HGD/invasive carcinoma group than in the LGD/IGD group (P < 0.05); the accuracies of these parameters were 80 %, 86.7 %, and 93.3 %, respectively. The microvessel density of the mural nodule was significantly higher in the HGD/invasive carcinoma group (P = 0.002). There was a strong positive, linear correlation between the echo intensity change of the mural nodule and the microvessel density (r = 0.803, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: CH-EUS with time - intensity curve analysis is potentially useful for quantitatively evaluating the blood flow of IPMN microvasculature, and for differentiating between HGD/invasive carcinoma and LGD/IGD.

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS: Recently, tissue harmonic echo (THE) imaging has advanced with the development of a new endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) monitor/processing unit. With this new technology, penetration (THE-P) and resolution (THE-R) images can be obtained. The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of this novel THE imaging using a new processing unit for pancreatic diseases. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Fifty patients with pancreatic lesions (38 cystic, 12 solid) were retrospectively analyzed. At each examination, 3 EUS images of the same pancreatic lesion were obtained using B-mode, THE-P mode, and THE-R mode imaging. Each set of EUS images was randomly arranged and evaluated independently by 4 physicians blinded to the imaging technique. Images were compared using a Likert scale 5-point grading system for each parameter. RESULTS: For cystic lesions, THE-P mode images were significantly superior to conventional B-mode images for visualizing the boundary, septum, nodules, and total image quality (P < 0.05). THE-R mode images were significantly superior to conventional B-mode images for visualizing the boundary, septum, and total image quality (P < 0.05). However, for solid lesions, there was no significant difference in all the evaluation points between THE-P and conventional B-mode images. THE-R mode images were inferior to conventional B-mode images for visualizing the boundary, internal structure, and total image quality (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: For pancreatic cystic lesions, THE mode images provided better lesion characterization than conventional B-mode images. Further research is required to determine if this improvement will result in improved EUS diagnostics.

BACKGROUND: Ethanol, a commonly available agent, has been used to successfully ablate cystic and solid lesions in the pancreas. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of an ethanol injection into the porcine pancreas and observe the time-dependent image changes in the pancreatic parenchyma. METHODS: Pure ethanol was injected into the pancreatic tail using a 25-gauge EUS needle with direct ultrasound guidance under celiotomy: 1 mL and 2 mL were injected, respectively. The abdomen was closed after the injection. MRI was performed before the procedure, immediately after, and on postoperative day (POD) seven. Blood samples were taken before the procedure and on PODs one, three, five, and seven. The pigs were euthanised on POD seven. RESULTS: Immediately after the injection, linear high signal areas in the pancreatic tail on T2 and rounded speckled high signal areas on DWI images were detected in both animals, measuring 35 × 32 mm in the 1 mL injected pig and 42 × 38mm in the 2 mL injected pig. After POD seven, rounded high signal areas were noted on T2 images, measuring 22 × 18 mm and 36 × 28 mm respectively. On POD one, the 1 mL injected animal had a 53% elevation in serum amylase while the 2 mL injected animal had a 66% elevation. Histologically, cystic and necrotic changes in the parenchyma were observed, measuring 23 × 22 mm and 40 × 35 mm respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Our results, which are limited to normal pancreas, suggested that a 1 mL injection caused localised changes within the pancreas while a 2 mL injection induced more widespread changes beyond the pancreas. The effective area of ethanol was widespread immediately after injection, and then the area was reduced with cystic and necrosis changes.

A 59-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for treatment of a 45 mm pancreatic mass found during a medical examination. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration cytology showed polygonal cells with pseudopapillary structures. The tumor cells were positive for nuclear/cytoplasmic β-catenin and CD10, and negative for chromogranin A. After a tentative diagnosis of a solid pseudopapillary neoplasm, middle pancreatectomy was performed. Histologically, polygonal cells with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm formed in the trabeculae and were immunohistochemically positive for HepPar1 and protein induced by vitamin K absence or antagonist-II. The tumor was finally diagnosed to be pancreatic hepatoid carcinoma. No recurrence occurred for 12 months, even without adjuvant chemotherapy.

Glycosylation, -a common post-translational modification of proteins,- is involved in several processes associated with cancer progression, including signaling, cell-cell adhesion, invasion and metastasis. We previously found that levels of multi-branch antennary and fucosylated glycans were elevated in pancreatic cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. Another potentially malignant disorder of the pancreas, invasive pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN), is hard to diagnose pre-operatively. A new serum biomarker for invasive IPMNs would help to diagnosis and identify cases needing high-risk pancreatic resection. In our recent study, we evaluated the potential use of glycans as clinical markers for invasive IPMNs. N-glycan profiles of whole-serum samples were evaluated from patients with a confirmed diagnosis of IPMNs. The serum profiles showed high expression levels of fucosylated glycans with multi-branch antennary structures, suggesting that these complex glycans may serve as biomarkers for the prediction of invasive IPMNs.

A 52-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with right upper quadrant pain with gallbladder wall thickening and multiple liver tumors. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biopsy revealed small cell carcinomas of both the gallbladder and liver. After 10 cycles of chemotherapy with etoposide and cisplatin, marked shrinkage of the tumors was evident on computed tomography. The patient subsequently underwent hepatectomy and resection of the extrahepatic bile duct and gallbladder with curative intent. Although no viable tumor cells were found in the resected specimens, we confirmed phagocytosis of tumor cells killed by chemotherapy in the resected liver specimen. Therefore, we suspected that the patient had primary small cell carcinoma of the liver that had been successfully treated. This is a rare case of primary small cell carcinoma of the liver that showed pathological complete response to chemotherapy with etoposide and cisplatin.

There are few reports on endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided transjejunal drainage. Here, we report a case with postoperative pancreatic fistula treated by endoscopic transjejunal drainage using a forward-viewing (FV) echoendoscope. A 69-year-old woman who had undergone pancreaticoduodenectomy was admitted because of pancreatic fistula. Placement of plastic stents into the pancreatic duct using a double-balloon enteroscope and EUS-guided transgastric drainage failed. We attempted EUS-guided transjejunal drainage using an FV echoendoscope that can advance through the acute-angled intestinal tract safely, and drainage was performed. There were no complications, and follow-up computed tomography showed complete resolution.

OBJECTIVE: Endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) using the slow pull technique (SP-FNA) has recently attracted attention as an effective tissue acquisition technique. However, efficacy of SP-FNA with a 22-gauge conventional needle remains unclear. The aim of this study is to evaluate the diagnostic ability of SP-FNA with a 22-gauge needle. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Patients with a pancreatic solid lesion were prospectively enrolled in this study. SP-FNA was performed at two needle passes with a 22-gauge needle. One dedicated pathologist evaluated the obtained samples in terms of quantity (Grade 0: scant; Grade 1: inadequate; Grade 2: adequate), quality (Grade 0: poor; Grade 1: moderate; Grade 2: good), and blood contamination (Grade 0: significant; Grade 1: moderate; Grade 2: low), and provided a pathological diagnosis. Additional EUS-FNA was performed by applying suction (SA-FNA). The evaluation points were as follows: diagnostic accuracy of SP-FNA compared with that of SA-FNA, and the quantity, quality, and blood contamination level of SP-FNA-obtained samples. RESULTS: We enrolled 40 cases. The diagnostic accuracy of SP-FNA was 90% (36/40). There was no significant difference in the accuracy between SP-FNA and SA-FNA (90% vs. 90%, p = 1.000). The samples obtained using SP-FNA were assessed as Grade 2 for quantity in 29 cases (73%), quality in 31 (78%), and blood contamination in 25 (63%). CONCLUSIONS: Adequate, high-quality, and unsubstantially blood-contaminated samples could be obtained using SP-FNA. The diagnostic ability of SP-FNA was 90%, which appeared to be similar to that of SA-FNA.

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal)

We report a case of biliary drainage for malignant stricture using a metal stent with an ultrathin endoscope through the gastric stoma. A 78-year-old female was referred to our hospital for jaundice and fever. She had undergone percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) for esophageal obstruction after radiation therapy for cancer of the pharynx. Abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a 3-cm enhanced mass in the middle bile duct and dilatation of the intra-hepatic bile duct. We initially performed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with a trans-oral approach. However, neither the side-viewing endoscope nor the ultrathin endoscope passed through the esophageal orifice. Thus, we eventually performed ERCP via the PEG stoma using an ultrathin endoscope. We performed biliary drainage with a 6F introducer self-expanding metal stent. The cytology findings obtained by brush cytology showed malignancy. Her laboratory results were restored to normal levels after drainage and no complication occurred.
