Overview

Brief Summary

To increase the diagnostic accuracy of subepithelial tumors, larger tissue samples are required. It is difficult to obtain adequate tissue samples. There were several biopsy methods to obtain tissue samples. Pathological examination would include mitosis counts, particularly in hypoechoic subepithelial tumors located in the 4th layer of the gastric wall, where differentiation between leiomyoma of benign nature and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) of malignant potential is essential.

So We hypothesize that unroofing biopsy is an more appropriate method than EUS-FNB(endoscopic ultrasonography guided fine needle biopsy). We will compare diagnostic accuracy and complications between EUS-FNB & unroofing biopsy.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

diagnostic accuracy

Time Frame: within 7 days

We will compare between diagnostic accuracy of EUS-FNB \& unroofing biopsy using final histopathological result.

Secondary Outcomes

  • number of complications of procedure(within 7 days)
  • accuracy of malignant potential on contrast enhanced EUS(within 7 days)
