ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
The widespread use of computed tomography as a screening tool for early lung cancer has increased detection of pulmonary lesions. It is common to encounter patients with more than one peripheral pulmonary nodule (PPN) of uncertain etiology. Shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (ssRAB) emerges as a potential alternative to biopsy multiple PPN, in addition to mediastinal staging in single anesthetic procedure.METHODS:
This is a single-center, retrospective review of 22 patients who underwent ssRAB for evaluation of two or more PPN, between November 2021 and April 2023 at Mayo Clinic, FL, USA.RESULTS:
A total of 46 PPNs were biopsied in 22 patients. All lesions were ≤2 cm with a median minimum and maximum cross-sectional lesion size of 1.40 cm and 1.05 cm, respectively. Diagnostic yield was 86.9% (n = 40), and target reach was 91.3% (n = 42). Most lesions were in the upper lobes, a solid pattern was found in 78.3% (n = 36), bronchus sign was present in 82.6% of cases (n = 38), 54.4% (n = 25) were malignant nodules, and 32.6% (n = 15) were benign. Fourteen patients had at least one malignant lesion out of two or more nodules sampled, and 10 patients had a malignant diagnosis for all sampled lesions. The complication rate was 9% (n = 2) with one case of bleeding and one of pneumothorax.CONCLUSION:
This study is, to our knowledge, the first to assess the use and safety of ssRAB for diagnosis of multiple PPN in a single anesthetic event. This procedure will mainly impact management decisions and subsequently shorten the time from diagnosis to treatment.Palavras-chave
