Abstract

EUS-guided tissue acquisition has evolved into an effective endoscopic technique to diagnose lymphoma. Historically, EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) has been used with suboptimal diagnostic accuracy [1]. EUS-guided fine needle biopsy (FNB) with core specimen acquisition has subsequently emerged as a potentially superior diagnostic procedure [2]. More recently, the Moray micro-forceps device (U.S. Endoscopy, Mentor, Ohio), a throughthe- needle biopsy forceps, has been approved for EUS-guided tissue acquisition of cystic lesions. In this case series, we explored the use of the micro-forceps to aid in the diagnosis of suspected lymphoma.
