Precise localization of small pancreatic tumors during laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) can be difficult because of decreased tactile ability of laparoscopy and the homogeneous appearance of the pancreas and surrounding retroperitoneal fat. Precise localization of the lesion is critical to achieving adequate margins of resection and preserving healthy pancreatic tissue. EUS-guided fine-needle tattooing (EUS-FNT) of a pancreatic lesion before LDP has been described in single case reports, but no large series have reported its effectiveness in patients undergoing LDP.
