AI Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) affects the accuracy of endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial lung biopsy with guide sheath (EBUS-GS-TBLB) in diagnosing peripheral lung cancer.
- It compares two groups of 138 lung cancer patients: one receiving EBUS-GS-TBLB with ROSE and the other without, focusing on diagnostic yields, biopsy sites, complications, costs, and procedure times.
- Results showed that the ROSE group had higher diagnostic accuracy (87.8% vs. 78.1%), fewer biopsy procedures, shorter times, lower costs, and fewer complications, indicating ROSE's beneficial role in lung cancer diagnosis
Article Abstract
Introduction: Rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) has the potential to increase endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial lung biopsy with guide sheath (EBUS-GS-TBLB) accuracy in the diagnosis of peripheral lung cancer. However, studies have reported controversial results.
Objectives: The aim of the study was to evaluate the diagnosis value of EBUS-GS-TBLB combination with ROSE in peripheral lung cancer.
Methods: A total of 138 patients undergoing EBUS-GS-TBLB and ultimately diagnosed with lung cancer were allocated into the ROSE group and non-ROSE group. The result of the diagnostic yields, number of biopsy sites, the complication, cytopathological diagnostic cost and procedure times of EBUS-GS-TBLB with ROSE and without ROSE were compared.
Results: The diagnostic yields of TBLB were 87.8% and 78.1% in ROSE group and non-ROSE group, respectively (P < .05). The number of biopsy, procedure times and the percentage of the complication in ROSE group was significantly lower than in non-ROSE group (P < .05, respectively). The cytopathological diagnostic cost of ROSE group was lower compared with non-ROSE group (P < .05).
Conclusions: EBUS-GS-TBLB combined with ROSE could be helpful to diagnose peripheral lung cancer, and could reduce the number of biopsy, procedure times, cytopathological diagnostic cost and complication.
