BACKGROUND: Laryngoscopy and biopsy is the standard techniques to sample and diagnose laryngeal neoplasms, but not all patients with laryngeal neoplasm are eligible for biopsy via laryngoscopy (e.g., submucosal neoplasms).
PURPOSE: This study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility and diagnostic yield of ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy (US-CNB) for submucosal laryngeal neoplasms with unsatisfactory laryngoscopy and biopsy results.
METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 24 patients with unsatisfactory laryngoscopy and biopsy results who were referred to our center for US-CNB from January 2017 to November 2021. For all enrolled patients, we assessed consistency between the laryngoscopic biopsy, US-CNB, and final results. The final results were determined from the surgical biopsy results or clinical follow-up information (at least 3 month). Differences between biopsy techniques were compared using the Fisher's exact test. A P value less than 0.05 indicated statistical significance.
RESULTS: Twenty-four patients (median [range] age: 60.6 [41-76] years, 20 men) were included in our study. Among the 24 patients, 12 were eligible for laryngoscopic biopsy. In total, 24 patients underwent 26 US-CNB. Two patients underwent a repeat US-CNB for conformation of a benign histological result or due to inadequate specimen collection. The results of laryngoscopic biopsy and US-CNB were compared with the final result. The overall accuracy of US-CNB for differentiating benign from malignant lesions was 95.8 % (23/24), and this procedure had a sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of 95.2 %, 100 %, 100 %, and 75 %, respectively. The results of US-CNB are significantly better than those of laryngoscopic biopsy.
CONCLUSIONS: US-CNB is a safe, effective, and feasible technique for investigating suspicious submucosal laryngeal neoplasms and can serve as a complementary method for early and timely diagnosis of those neoplasms.
