Article Synopsis
- This study examines the use of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) for restaging non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after initial treatment, validated by a separate procedure called video-assisted mediastinoscopic lymphadenectomy (VAMLA).* -
- A retrospective analysis of patients showed that EBUS-TBNA has a moderate sensitivity (63.1%) but excellent specificity (100%) for identifying mediastinal disease, while VAMLA confirmed a 100% accuracy when follow-up was needed after a negative EBUS-TBNA result.* -
- The findings suggest EBUS-TBNA should be the first choice for invasive rest

Background: Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for about 85% of lung cancers, and is the leading cause of tumor-related death. Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most prevalent subtype of NSCLC. Although significant progress of LUAD treatment has been made under multimodal strategies, the prognosis of advanced LUAD is still poor due to recurrence and metastasis.
