Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS)

Background:

  • Previous papers discussed EUS examination prerequisites and technical controversies.
  • EUS is a crucial tool in diagnosing and managing gastrointestinal and hepatobiliary diseases.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive guide on performing EUS-guided fine needle tattooing (FNT) in clinical practice.
  • To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of various aspects of EUS-FNT.

Main Methods:

  • Review of historical aspects and available evidence on EUS-FNT.
  • Discussion of injecting materials, technical approaches, and procedural considerations.
  • Analysis of arguments for and against EUS-FNT.

Main Results:

  • EUS-FNT offers a valuable method for marking lesions or lymph nodes during endoscopic procedures.
  • Optimal tattooing involves careful selection of materials and precise needle placement.
  • The technique requires consideration of potential complications and patient factors.

Conclusions:

  • EUS-FNT is a feasible and useful technique when performed with appropriate knowledge and technique.
  • Further research may refine EUS-FNT protocols and expand its applications.
  • This paper serves as a practical guide for endoscopists considering EUS-FNT.
