There’s a lot of different techniques to choose from for EUS guided liver biopsy and no formally standardized technique. Recently I tried out the “dynamic suction” technique using wet heparin suction and loved the results 👀

It was one of my life’s greatest honors to give the keynote address at DDW 2025 AGA-ASGE post-grad course this year in San Diego.
I re-recorded the talk which is predominantly about inpatient hemostasis to be shared freely to all.
Please share widely! https://t.co/uBbVI6ncdv
What is the optimal surveillance recommendation following colorectal ESD? 1 year? 3 years? 5 years?
Honored to be invited to write this @UEGJournal editorial on ESD surveillance with my mentor @ThirdspaceEndo and friend @LumirKunovsky

Sphincterotomy following Billroth II surgery is also inverted, with the cut aiming to 5-6 O'clock. I use a rotating sphincterotome for these cases. Specialty tomes are available.
EUS liver biopsy is safe & easy to perform by endosonographers who routinely do EUS FNB. Great yields obtained using heparin flushed 19 G FNB w wet suction & 3 actuations in liver after puncture. Flush onto fine mesh gauze or cassette then gently place cores in formalin
@M_Almohamady Often they have tenesmsus or heaviness lasting 24h. This is a false sensation from the band.
I have ready for them 1g Tylenol, 200mg Advil and instruction to take a warm Sitz bath at home followed by a nap.
