Abstract

Pancreatic metastases account for 2-5 % of all pancreatic malignancies and challenge differential diagnosis versus primary pancreatic neoplasia. EUS fine needle aspiration (FNA) shows the greatest accuracy in the differential diagnosis of pancreatic masses. However, EUS-FNA may suffer from suboptimal sensitivity and low but not negligible rate of complications. Recently, CH-EUS has been reported as an useful adjunct in differential diagnosis of pancreatic tumors. Our aim was to evaluate the potential role of CH-EUS in the differential diagnosis of pancreatic metastases.
