Utility of core biopsy with concurrent ROSE FNA in the diagnosis of pancreatic tumor‐does the biopsy add any diagnostic benefit?

Endoscopic ultrasound‐guided fine‐needle aspiration (EUS‐FNA) and endoscopic ultrasound‐guided core‐needle biopsy (EUS‐CNB) are widely used for diagnosis of pancreatic tumors. The aim of our study was to compare the diagnostic performance of ROSE EUS‐FNA and EUS‐CNB for diagnosis of pancreatic malignancy during the same EUS.
