There are no reports in the literature regarding the role of endoscopic ultrasound and elastography (EUS-EG) in exploring the integrity of Inoue's level III and its correlation with the periarterial divestment technique feasibility. Our research is aimed at exploring the role of EUS-EG in this scenario. Methods: We describe our approach to Inoue's level II by EUS-EG in patients with BR and LA pancreatic cancer patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Results: Between June 2019 and December 2020, four patients out of 25 were eligible to perform a preoperative EUS-EG. In all cases, Inoue's level III integrity was corroborated by EUS-EG and confirmed posteriorly in the surgical scenario where a periarterial divestment technique was feasible. Vein resections were necessary in all cases, with no need for arterial resection. An R0 (> 1 mm) margin was achieved in all patients, and the histopathological assessment showed the presence of neurovascular tissue at the peripheral arterial margin. Conclusion: Preoperatively, EUS-EG is a novel approach to explore the integrity of Inoue's level III and could be helpful to preclude a periarterial divestment technique in borderline resectable or locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinoma with arterial involvement. http://hdl.handle.net/2072/471802 Periarterial divestment Pancreatic cancer Locally advanced pancreatic cancer Triangle operation Borderline pancreatic cancer SDG 3 - Good Health and Well-being Assessment of the level III of Inoue by preoperative endoscopic ultrasound and elastography : a novel approach to predict a periarterial divestment technique in borderline resectable (BR) or locally advanced (LA) pancreatic adenocarcinoma-How I do it
