  • Bronhoskopska igelna aspiracija = Bronchoscopic needle aspiration
    Kecelj, Peter, 1965- ; Debeljak, Andrej, 1940-
    Background. The results of bronchoscopic needle aspiration (BNA) used to confirm the spread of metastases from lung lung cancer to the mediastinal lymph nodes were compared with histopathological ... findings at surgical resection. The diagnostic yield of BNA of peripheral lymph nodules and mases, and of peribronchial and submucosal lesions was assessed in two groups of patients. Methods. In this retrospective study, we compared the results of BNAand operative histological findings in 28 patients with lung cancer. In addition, we determine dthe diagnostic yield of BNA in 26 patients with peripheral lymph nodes involvement, and in 24 patients with peribronchial and submucosal malignant lesions. The latter two groups were evaluated both by BNA, transbronchial biopsy, bronchial biopsy and transthoracic aspiration needle biopsy. Results. BNA demonstrated malignant cells in 2 patients, while staging done by the pathologist revealed metastase to mediastinal lymph nodes in 8 patients. In our group, the positive and negative predictive value of BNAwas 100% and 78%, respectively. The diagnostic yield of BNA was 54% forpatients with peripheral lesions, and 63% for patients with signs of peribronchial and submucosal involvement. Conclusions. BNA has a high positivepredictive value in staging lung cancer concerning the mediastinal lymph node involvement. Also, it a useful adjunct method in the diagnosis of peripheral lymph mode and peribronchial and submucosal lesions.
