简要总结

This trial examines the role of EUS-FNA (Oesophageal Endoscopic Ultrasound with Fine Needle Aspiration) as an endoscopic technique for the mediastinal staging of patients with lung cancer.

Patients will be randomized to either conventional surgical technique or EUS-FNA.

入选标准

  • patients with histological or cytological proof of non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or with a high clinical suspicion for lung cancer (but without pathologically confirmed diagnosis from the bronchoscopy or CT guided transthoracal biopsies) in whom the next step is normally a diagnostic or therapeutic surgical intervention
  • no distant metastases after routine clinical work up (PET is optional, not mandatory)
  • provision of a written informed consent
  • recent CT-scan of the thorax (<28 days before randomization date)
  • age 18 years or older
  • clinically fit for surgery

排除标准

  • proof of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) with CWU (bronchoscopy or CT guided transthoracal punction)
  • stage IV NSCLC
  • patients with a solitary pulmonary nodule (thus without enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes on CT and without mediastinal PET hot spots) : these do not require further mediastinal investigation
  • former therapy (chemotherapy or radiotherapy or surgery) for lung cancer
  • other concomitant malignancies
  • reasons for which the patient is unable to swallow the EUS-instrument (e.g. zenker diverticulum, unexplained esophageal stenosis)
  • uncorrected coagulopathy
