Abstract

Since Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) was introduced in the 1980s, EUS has evolved from a diagnostic tool to a therapeutic modality for patients with pancreatic neoplasms. Traditionally, treatment policy of pancreatic benign neoplasms (PBN) has been a dichotomous approach to observation or surgery. However, EUS guided treatment provides an alternative option with minimally invasiveness for patients with PBN. This review aimed to provide the role of EUS guided treatment for PBN.

내시경초음파가 1980년대에 개발된 이후, 내시경초음파는 췌장 종양 관리에 있어서 진단적인 역할뿐만 아니라 치료적인 역할로 그 기능이 확대되고 있다. 췌장 양성 종양에 대한 전통적인 치료방법은 수술적 절제를 시행하거나 주기적인 경과관찰을 하는 것이었다. 그러나 내시경초음파는 그 대안으로 췌장 양성 종양을 가진 환자에게 최소 침습적인 치료법을 제공한다. 본고에서는 췌장 양성 종양치료에 있어서 내시경초음파의 역할에 대해 알아보고자 한다.
