Endoscopic ultrasound-guided parenchymal liver biopsy: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS)-guided liver biopsy is a novel technique to obtain adequate liver samples for diagnosis of liver parenchymal diseases. The aim was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of EUS-LB and evaluate factors associated with specimen quality. We searched databases to identify studies in which results of E US-guided liver parechymic biopsies were reported published up to July 2020. Using FNB needles with a slow-pull technique can provide better results than fine-needle aspi
