SonoTip® AccessPro EUS Access Needle

An EUS access needle enters a target cavity or duct under endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guidance and places a guidewire; in EUS-guided pseudocyst drainage it gives the puncture and the guidewire. SonoTip AccessPro is a single-use 19G EUS needle: blunt stainless steel cannula, cutting nitinol stylet, 0.035 inch guidewire lumen. It is used for access, guidewire placement, aspiration and injection.

An EUS-guided access needle system designed to support therapeutic EUS interventions and guidewire passage.

In which cases?

  • Pancreatic pseudocysts, where the needle gives the first puncture and the guidewire for the drainage devices that follow.
  • Pancreatic cysts that may become malignant, for fluid aspiration and cytology.
  • Intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile ducts, the pancreatic duct, the cystic duct and the gallbladder.
  • Biliary obstruction that conventional ERCP cannot resolve: a 0.035″ guidewire is placed for rendezvous or for transmural drainage.

What makes it different?

  • The cannula lumen takes a 0.035″ guidewire, against 0.030″ on our 19G sampling needles, so the wire suits the devices advanced over it.
  • Trocar cut stylet; the manufacturer states it lowers puncture resistance at the first entry.
  • The cutting edge is on the stylet; the cannula tip itself is ground blunt, which the manufacturer states protects tissue and instruments.
  • A specially treated needle tip, which the manufacturer states lets the procedure be followed under ultrasound.
  • The puncture depth and the length are set on a scale and held by the rotating lock, which the manufacturer states gives precise access to the target tissue.

Frequently asked questions

What is an EUS access needle, and how does it differ from an FNA or FNB needle?

An EUS access needle (EUS-guided access needle) is used to enter a target cavity or duct under endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guidance and to place a guidewire, while a sampling needle is made to bring back cells or a tissue core. SonoTip AccessPro (also written Access Pro) has a blunt stainless steel cannula and a cutting nitinol stylet with a trocar cut, so the cutting edge is on the stylet. Its lumen takes a guidewire of up to 0.035 inch, against 0.030 inch on our 19G sampling needles.

What is the access needle used for?

Its purpose is taking a sample, gaining access and injecting during endoscopic procedures, and its indications are cytological examination, biliary obstruction that conventional ERCP cannot reach, and pseudocysts and cysts that may degenerate. Its lumen takes a guidewire up to 0.035 inch, so the access step connects to the ERCP accessories.

Which working channel does it need?

The sheath outer diameter is 2.1 mm, and the working channel has to be at least 0.2 mm larger than the outer diameter of the device.

Which needle is used to enter the cyst in EUS-guided pseudocyst drainage?

The access needle gives the puncture and the guidewire for the drainage devices that follow. SonoTip AccessPro is 19G, takes a guidewire of up to 0.035 inch and has a 2.1 mm sheath. Once the guidewire is in the cavity, the tract is widened and kept open with stents. Our Cystogastrostomy Set is a separate product for drainage into the stomach or duodenum. It punctures with its own high frequency needle knife.

Which needle is used for EUS-guided biliary drainage, and how is the size chosen?

The ESGE 2022 therapeutic EUS guideline prefers EUS-guided biliary drainage over percutaneous drainage in malignant distal biliary obstruction after failed ERCP, where expertise is available (strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence). It makes no recommendation on needle size, and the choice follows the guidewire to be used. SonoTip AccessPro is 19G and takes a guidewire of up to 0.035 inch. The choice of needle is the physician's decision.
