BACKGROUND: Navigational bronchoscopy is commonly used to sample lung nodules, with a better safety profile but lower diagnostic yield than computerized tomography-guided transthoracic needle biopsy. The addition of digital tomosynthesis to electromagnetic navigation, using intraprocedural images obtained from a C-arm fluoroscope to identify target lesion location and update navigational guidance, may improve diagnostic yield.
METHODS: Consecutive bronchoscopies using tomosynthesis-assisted fluoroscopic electromagnetic navigational bronchoscopy (F-ENB) at a single institution over a 1-year period were included. The primary outcome was diagnostic yield. A bronchoscopy was defined as diagnostic if pathologic examination revealed malignancy or specific histological findings indicative of lesional sampling with confirmatory 6-month follow-up for benign lesions.
RESULTS: A total of 324 patients with 363 nodules underwent F-ENB between April 25, 2018 and April 29, 2019. The average nodule size was 1.9±1.1 cm, 65% of the nodules were located in the peripheral third of the lung. A bronchus sign was present in 24% of cases. Of the 363 nodules, 299 (82.4%) had lesional findings. At 6-month follow-up, among these 299 nodules, 6 were found to be false negatives and 12 nodules were lost to follow-up. Considering all nodules lost to follow-up as false negatives, the 6-month diagnostic yield was 77.4%. Pneumothorax complicated 8 (2.5%) of cases. There was 1 episode of respiratory failure.
CONCLUSION: This retrospective study suggests the diagnostic yield of F-ENB may exceed that of traditional ENB. Future prospective and comparative studies are needed to confirm these promising data.
