Abstract:
Objective To study the diagnostic value of radial echoendoscopy combined with ultrasonic micro-probe for differentiating mediastinal disease from esophageal submucosal lesion.Methods Data of 53 patients with esophageal eminence with unknown origin detected by gastroscopy or CT in China-Japan Union Hospital were reviewed.Ultrasonic micro-probe was performed first and followed with radial echoendoscopy.The diagnosis was compared with the results of CT.Results The diagnostic sensitivities of EUS and CT for esophageal submucosal lesion were 90.9% (20/22) and 50.0% (11/22),and the specificities were 93.5% (29/31)and 83.9% (26/31).The sensitivities for the benign mediastinal disease were 91.7% (22/24) and 70.8% (17/24),and the specificities for the benign disease were 93.1% (27/29)and 62.1% (18/29).The sensitivity and specificity for malignant mediastinal disease were both 100.0%.Conclusion Radial echoendoscopy combined with ultrasonic micro-probe shows prominent advantage in the diagnosis of the esophageal submucosal lesion and mediastinal disease over CT,especially in the specificity and sensitivity for esophageal submucosal lesion and benign mediastinal disease.
