Hypervascular Pancreatic Lesions on Contrast-Enhanced EUS: Beyond Neuroendocrine Tumors

Abstract

Aims Although pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs) typically have a solid, hypervascular appearance on contrast-enhanced endoscopic ultrasound (CE-EUS), other non-PNET lesions may have a similar appearance. It is important to discriminate hypervascular pancreatic lesions because of different treatment option and prognosis. With this background, we decided to review our single-center experience with regard to hypervascular pancreatic lesions on CE-EUS.
