Abstract

One of 4 patients (25%) and 2 of 3 patients (67%) were correctly diagnosed by conventional and hot boring biopsies, respectively. The median procedure time of conventional and hot boring biopsies was 21 (range, 13-33) and 17 (range, 16-23) min, respectively. Rapid on-site evaluation was performed totally 12 times in 7 patients. The positive and negative predictive values of rapid on-site evaluation for gastrointestinal stromal tumor were 0.5 (0.12-0.88) and 1.0 (0.42-1.00), respectively.

Keywords: biopsy; endoscopy; gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
