Core Tip

Core Tip: Endoscopic ultrasound guided tissue sampling is a crucial procedure for histological diagnosis of pancreatic lesions, but it may occasionally be accompanied by unforeseen complications. The Fanning method is a technique that can enhance diagnostic accuracy, but it also carries the risk of unintended ductal injury. Here, we report a case where the use of the Fanning method during endoscopic ultrasound guided tissue sampling resulted in leakage of the pancreatic duct. We successfully managed this complication by performing pancreatic duct stent via endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.
