Diagnostic yield of malignancy during EUS-guided FNA of solid lesions with and without a stylet

Background Use of a stylet during EUS-guided FNA (EUS-FNA) is believed to improve the quality and diagnostic yield of specimens. Objective To compare samples obtained by EUS-FNA with (S+) and without (S−) a stylet for diagnostic yield of malignancy and cytological characteristics. Design Randomized,...
