Objective: X-ray guided transbronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial lung biopsy (EBUS-TBLB) can improve the diagnostic yield of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs), but it needs special requirements. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical value of virtual bronchoscopy navigation (VBN) combined with EBUS-TBLB in the diagnosis of PPLs without X-ray guidance. Methods: The 105 patients with PPLs underwent EBUS-TBLB with or without VBN randomly. The diagnostic yield, the operation time and complications were evaluated in the 2 groups. Results: No significant difference was found between the VBN+EBUS group and the EBUS group (76.0% vs. 65.5%, P = 0.287). The operation time of VBN+EBUS group was significantly shorter than that of EBUS group (20.6 ± 12.8 min vs. 28.6 ± 14.3 min, P = 0.023). No severe procedure related complications occurred. Conclusions: VBN can shorten the operation time. The combination of VBN and EBUS-TBLB is a safe and effective diagnosis technique for PPLs.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic value of radial endobronchial ultrasound (R-EBUS) combination with rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) guided transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) for peripheral pulmonary lesions. Methods: Peripheral pulmonary lesions identified by computed tomography underwent R-EBUS with or without ROSE randomly from February 2016 to August 2017. The diagnostic yield and the operation time were compared. Results: In total, 158 patients were involved in and completed this research, including 84 cases in the group of R-EBUS with ROSE, and 74 in the group without ROSE. The diagnostic yield of ROSE group was 85.7%. Among these positive cases, 69.4% cases were malignant tumors, and 30.6% cases were benign lesions. The operation time was (24.6 ± 6.3) min. In the group without ROSE, the diagnostic yield was 70.3%, including 35 malignant tumors (67.3%), and 17 benign lesions (32.7%). The operation time was (31.5 ± 6.8) min. There were significant differences between both groups in the diagnostic yield (χ2 = 5.556, P = 0.018) and in the operation time (t = 3.187, P < 0.01). No serious procedure related complications were observed, such as pneumothorax and hemorrhage. Conclusion: ROSE can improve the diagnostic yield, and shorten the operation time. R-EBUS combined with ROSE is a safe and effective technique for peripheral pulmonary lesions.

Objectives To evaluate the value of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) during radial probe endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial lung biopsy (rpEBUS-TBLB) for peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs). Methods One hundred and six patients with PPLs who received rpEBUS-TBLB were enrolled in this study. One specimen was immediately examined by ROSE and the other was sent to the central laboratory for cytologic diagnosis. The results of ROSE were compared with those of pathological diagnosis. Results The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of ROSE during rpEBUS-TBLB for PPLs were 82.1%, 89.6%, and 77.1%, respectively. The procedure times and number of biopsies were less for procedures when ROSE was positive compared with those when ROSE was negative (procedure time: 20.5 ± 7.9 vs. 28.3 ± 7.6 minutes; number of biopsies: 1.6 ± 0.9 vs. 2.8 ± 0.6 times). No serious procedural complications were observed. Conclusions ROSE has value for diagnosing PPLs during rpEBUS. It can reduce procedure time, number of biopsies, and complications. ROSE combined with rpEBUS is an effective and safe method for the diagnosis of PPLs.
