Abstract:
Space-occupying lesions in the pancreas have complex etiologies, various types, and different treatment methods, and the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of such lesions have always been a difficult issue in clinical practice. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a relatively sensitive and effective method for space-occupying lesions in the pancreas. This article reviews the advances in the value of EUS in the diagnosis of space-occupying lesions in the pancreas, introduces the efficiency of EUS in common space-occupying lesions in the pancreas, and elaborates on the latest advances in EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration and other related techniques in the diagnosis of space-occupying lesions in the pancreas.
