About this study
Official title: Endoscopic Ultrasound-guided Fine-needle Injection for Nonfunctional Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors: a Prospective Multicenter Study
The current study aims to access the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of EUS-FNI for nonfunctional pNETs
Read the detailed description
The management of nonfunctional pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NF-pNETs) remains controversial. In general, surgical resection is the standard treatment for NF-pNETs. However, the incidence of postoperative adverse events of surgical resection is relatively high. Recently, several studies have revealed that endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided fine-needle injection (EUS-FNI) with ethanol or lauromacrogol may offer an effective treatment for pNETs. Therefore, a multicenter prospective study is being conducted to further identify the efficacy and safety of EUS-FNI for NF-pNETs.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
EUS-guided ethanol ablationProcedure or surgery
After puncturing with the needle, 95% ethanol under the guidance of EUS was injected into the tumor. The injection volume of ethanol was estimated according to the following principles: (1) The injection volume was not larger than the tumor spherical volume. (2) Injection volume was reduced when the tumor was adjacent to the pancreatic duct or vessel. (3) Injection volume for the lesions with repeated EUS-FNI was reduced.
EUS-guided lauromacrogol ablationProcedure or surgery
After puncturing with the needle, lauromacrogol under the guidance of EUS was injected into the tumor. The injection volume of lauromacrogol was estimated according to the following principles: (1) The injection volume was not larger than the tumor spherical volume. (2) Injection volume was reduced when the tumor was adjacent to the pancreatic duct or vessel. (3) Injection volume for the lesions with repeated EUS-FNI was reduced.
