Abstract:Objective To investigate the positive rate of endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) and the influencing factors of postoperative complications in the diagnosis of small pancreatic carcinoma.Methods 45 patients with small pancreatic carcinoma from January 2020 to January 2022 were selected. All of them were confirmed by post-operative pathological examination. EUS-FNA diagnosis was made before operation. The number of puncture needles and the number of lifts and inserts per needle of the patients with positive puncture and negative puncture were compared. The factors affecting the positive rate of diagnosis were determined by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis. At the same time, the number of lifts and inserts per needle of the patients with and without complications were compared.Results There was no significant difference in the number of puncture needles and the number of lifting and inserting of each needle between the patients with positive puncture and the patients with negative puncture (P > 0.05); There was no significant difference in age, sex and lesion location (P > 0.05), but there was a significant difference in puncture negative pressure (P < 0.05); By multivariate Logistic regression analysis, 10 mL negative pressure puncture could improve the positive rate of diagnosis (P < 0.05); Compared with the patients without complications, the number of lifting and inserting per needle in the patients with complications was significantly higher (P < 0.05).Conclusion When EUS-FNA is applied to the diagnosis of small pancreatic carcinoma, 10 mL negative pressure puncture can improve the positive rate of diagnosis. However, the postoperative complications are affected by the number of lifts and inserts per needle, and the number of lifts and inserts per needle should be reduced as much as possible.
