The role of endoscopy in the diagnosis and treatment of cystic pancreatic neoplasms
Nov 14, 2016, 20:26 PM
This is one of a series of statements discussing the use of
GI endoscopy in common clinical situations. The Standards
of Practice Committee of the American Society for
Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) prepared this text. In
preparing this guideline, a search of the medical literature
from January 1990 to September 2015 was performed
by using PubMed. Additional references were obtained
from the bibliographies of the identified articles and
from recommendations of expert consultants. When
limited or no data existed from well-designed prospective
trials, emphasis was given to results from large series and
reports from recognized experts. Guidelines for appropriate
use of endoscopy are based on a critical review
of the available data and expert consensus at the time
the guidelines were drafted. Further controlled clinical
studies may be needed to clarify aspects of this guideline.
This guideline may be revised as necessary to account for
changes in technology, new data, or other aspects of clinical
practice. The recommendations were based on reviewed
studies and were graded on the strength of the
supporting evidence (Table 1).
