Overview
Other diagnostic studies for autoimmune pancreatitis usually include pancreatic biopsy, which may demonstrate extensive fibrosis. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided trucut biopsy (EUS-TCB) is usually avoided due to increased risk of complications and limited diagnostic ability.
Other Diagnostic Studies
- Other diagnostic studies for autoimmune pancreatitis usually include:
- Pancreatic biopsy, which demonstrates:
- Extensive fibrosis
- Lymphoplasmacytic infiltration
- Pancreatic biopsy, which demonstrates:
- Endoscopic ultrasound-guided trucut biopsy (EUS-TCB) is usually avoided due to:[1][2]
- Increased risk of complications
- Limited diagnostic ability due to
- Small sample size
- Lack of tissue architecture
