Abstract

B TYPE: b Abstract Publication B TOPIC: b Procedures B PURPOSE: b Current guidelines recommend using endobronchial ultrasound guided lymph node biopsy (EBUS) in staging non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with evidence of lymphatic metastasis, in primary tumor located centrally, and in tumors > 3cm in size. B METHODS: b A retrospective study identifying patients that underwent an EBUS from January 2005 to May 2019 in adult patients who underwent both a CT and PET/CT that showed a RS1 lung nodule prior to an EBUS. Of those, 13 (6.9%; 95% CI, 4.1%-11.5%) had a positive lymph node with 6 (3.2%; 95% CI, 1.5%-6.8%) were N1 nodes and 7 (3.7%; 95% CI, 1.8%-7.5%) were N2 nodes. [Extracted from the article]
