Description

In our tertiary referral Pancreas Center, we observed a reduction in the number of pancreatic endoscopic ultrasound (EUSP) procedures, mostly performed for neoplastic and pre-neoplastic reasons, during lockdown. We compared the period of major spreading of Covid-19 Infection in Italy, between February 1st and April 30th, 2020, with the same period in 2019.
