Endosonography guided fine needle aspiration cytology ( Cook Medical, Boston Scientific)

Patients will be randomized either to receive EUS-FNA with a 22 g needle or 25 g needle. EUS-FNA passes will be performed without stylet until sample adequacy or until a maximum of 5 FNA passes in pancreatic lesions or 3 FNA passes in other lesions. In case of inadequate sample after 3 passes, or needle failure, cross over to the other type of needle is allowed.
