Quel futur pour l’EE?

What Future for EUS?

  • Published:
Acta Endoscopica

Résumé

L’Echoendoscopie (EE) et la ponction aspiration à l’aiguille fine guide par EE recouvrent une grande variété d’applications diagnostiques et thérapeutiques. Outre les applications bien établies, de nouvelles indications voient le jour. Certaines sont novatrices, développées par des endosonographistes les plus expérimentés avec dans un futur proche, un rôle présumé en pratique clinique. D’autres ne sont que des applications expérimentales, menées sur des modèles animaux ou sur un groupe de patients hautement sélectionnés. Celles-ci ouvrent néanmoins une voie fascinante de recherche sachant toutefois qu’elles ne seront pas rapidement introduites dans la pratique clinique.

Summary

Endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) and EUS-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) encompass a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Along with established indications, new indications are emerging. Some are innovative applications, developed by highly experienced endosonographers and with a putative role for clinical practice in the near future. Others are merely experimental applications, carried on in animal models or in highly selected groups of patients, opening up new fascinating areas of research but not for imminent introduction in clinical practice.
