متن کاملThoracoscopic mediastinal lymph node dissection using an endoscopic spacer.
Although fewer lymph nodes are dissected with video-assisted thoracic surgery than with open lobectomy, thoracoscopic lobectomy is increasingly becoming the preferred surgical approach for early-stage lung cancers. The endoscopic surgical spacer SECUREA™ is a medical device that has been effectively employed in laparoscopic surgery, but no study has evaluated its efficacy in thoracoscopic surge...
متن کاملTransbronchial needle aspiration of mediastinal lymph node.
In Malaysia, transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) is a relatively new procedure performed only in a handful of respiratory centres. We reviewed TBNA of mediastinal lymph node performed in Hospital Tengku Ampuan Afzan (HTAA) to determine the yield and its complications. Data was retrieved from endoscopy databases and patients' records, CT thorax images and all cytological and histological sli...

Metastasis to lymph nodes is one of the most prognostic factors in patients who underwent surgery. Also, a positive result from pathology report alert oncologist as a cause of death. Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been widely ...
متن کاملMediastinoscopy as a standardised procedure for mediastinal lymph node staging in non-small cell lung carcinoma.
Staging is an essential part of the work-up of a patient presenting with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It is impossible to decide which treatment is appropriate for an individual patient without information regarding tumor extension, regional lymph node metastases and distant metastases. The ability to assess mediastinal involvement is important since the presence of pathologic mediastina...
