EUS-guided liver biopsy (EUS-LB) is a safe and effective method for liver tissue sampling. This study evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of EUS-LB compared to percutaneous sono-guided liver biopsy (PC-LB).
Patients undergoing EUS-LB for liver mass of left lobe were included in this retrospepctive, multicenter study in Taiwan between January 2019 and December 2021. The control group consisted of patients who underwent PC-LB. The tissue acquisition rate were evaluated.
The study showed significant difference in S1-4 of liver biopsy. EUS-LB achieved a significantly higher percentage of tissue sampling (28.2%). The overall diagnostic accuracy from EUS-LB was 97.4% (38/39) as compared to 88.5%(31/35) measured in control group. There was no statistical difference between these two methods.
The diagnostic yield was equal between EUS-LB and PC-LB. We need more data to confirm the diagnostic accuracy for EUS-LB.
