Abstract

The clinical work-up of patients with presumed pancreaticobiliary obstruction is usually straightforward including laboratory investigation, abdominal ultrasound and computer tomography. Ultrasound and computer tomography may, however, yield inconclusive findings regarding underlying cause. We report a case series (n = 10) demonstrating the usefulness of endoscopic ultrasound in the work-up of patients with inconclusive ultrasound and computer tomography findings, clinically suspected of pancreaticobiliary cancer.
