Abstract:
Objective To study the diagnostic value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)for benign and malignant bile duct stricture.Methods Data of 51 patients who underwent EUS from January 2007 to March 2015 due to distal biliary stricture were retrospectively studied.And their diagnosis with EUS,IDUS,bile duct cytological brushing and final diagnosis were compared.Results Malignant bile duct stenosis were finally confirmed in 19 cases and benign stenosis were confirmed in 32 cases.The sensitivity (73.7％ VS 57.1％) and positive predictive value (73.7％ VS 57.1％) of EUS for the benign and malignant diagnosis of biliary tract stenosis were significantly higher than that of IDUS (P＜0.05),while their specificity(84.4％ VS 84.2％)and accuracy(80.4％ VS 76.9％)were similar.The sensitivity of EUS was significantly higher than that of bile duct cytological brushing (73.7％ VS 50.0％),while their specificity (84.4％ VS 100.0％)and accuracy(80.4％ VS 81.6％)were similar.EUS findings of hypoechoic mass features had higher diagnostic accuracy for detecting malignant distal bile duct stricture than irregular thickening of the lumen in the distal bile duct (100.0％ VS 64.3％,P＜0.05).Conclusion For patients with lesions of the distal bile duct that CT/MRI could not diagnose,EUS has an important value for the further diagnosis of benign and malignant bile duct stricture.
