Brief Summary

Peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPL) are defined as nodules or masses that are located in the lung periphery; hence cannot be seen via regular bronchoscopy. Due to their location, establishing a patholo...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Adults ≥ 18 years old
  • Presence of a peripheral pulmonary lesion (PPL) of ≤5cm (mean short-long on axial CT) suspicious for malignancy.
  • The PPL appears radiologically accessible via pEBUS as assessed by an experienced interventional respirologist.
  • Absence of suspicious mediastinal lymphadenopathy on non-invasive staging defined as N1, N2 or N3 nodes ≥1cm on CT or ≥ moderate uptake on PET/CT unless shown to be negative on invasive sampling. Linear EBUS sampling of nodal stations will otherwise be permitted as part of a staging procedure.
  • Clinical decision made by patient and treating physician to proceed to bronchoscopy.

Exclusion

  • Other intervention indicated as primary diagnostic procedure (eg: TTNA, surgical lung biopsy, linear EBUS alone, biopsy of extra-thoracic lesion)
  • Location of lesion not amenable to transbronchial needle aspiration sampling as assessed by an experienced interventional respirologist.
  • Contra-indication to pEBUS or bronchoscopy such as: severe pulmonary hypertension (mean pulmonary arterial pressure of ≥25mmHg with evidence of right heart failure), unstable medical condition or uncorrected coagulopathy.
  • Pregnancy
  • Use of electromagnetic or other navigation system (virtual bronchoscopic planning is allowed)
  • Absence of informed consent.
