Excerpt

Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) is established as a tissue acquisition technique for solid masses in or adjacent to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract [1, 2]. EUS-FNA for the indeterminate biliary stricture [3] or EUS-trucut biopsy (TCB) for the thickened esophagogastric wall [4] has also been reported. Herein, we present two cases of malignant duodenal obstruction without a discrete mass diagnosed by EUS-FNA. …

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
