Abstract
AbstractEndoscopic ultrasound enables visualization of lesions within and in the vicinity of the gastrointestinal tract. Endoscopic ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration cytology (EUS‐FNAC) helps in targeting various luminal and extraluminal lesions both diagnostically and therapeutically. Various intra‐abdominal organs amenable to EUS‐FNA include the gastrointestinal tract (GIT), pancreas, kidney, adrenal gland, liver, bile duct, gallbladder, spleen, and lymph nodes. EUS‐FNAC is mostly done for pancreatic and intra‐abdominal lymph nodal lesions. In the present review, we have discussed various aspects of EUS‐FNAC.
