Risk factors and characteristics of young patients with the biliary tract carcinoma: results of a project study for biliary surgery by the Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Adequate needle size and tissue acquisition techniques for endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) need further elucidation. Moreover, the actual negative pressure and suction forces of FNA needles remain unknown. We evaluated the suction forces of 19-gauge, 22-gauge, and 25-gauge conve...
