Abstract

Abstract Background This is a retrospective cohort study from a single center of Chest Medical District of Nanjing Brain Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University, Jiangsu Province, China. It was aim to evaluate the diagnostic value of radial endobronchial ultrasound (R-EBUS) combination with rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) guided transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) for peripheral pulmonary lesions in patients with emphysema. Methods All 170 patients who underwent PPLs with emphysema received an R-EBUS examination with or without the ROSE procedure, and the diagnostic yield, safety, and possible factors influencing diagnosis were analyzed between the two groups by the SPSS 25.0 software. Results The pooled and benign diagnostic yields were not different in the two groups (P = 0.224, 0.924), but the diagnostic yield of malignant PPLs was significantly higher in the group with ROSE than the group without ROSE (P = 0.042). The sensitivity of ROSE was 79.10%, the specificity, 91.67%, the positive predictive value, 98.15%, and the negative predictive value, 84.62%. The diagnostic accuracy, was 95.52%. In the group of R-EBUS + ROSE, the procedural time and the number of times of biopsy or brushing were both significantly reduced (all P
