Overview
Biopsy for lung mass may be classified into 2 categories such as non-surgical biopsy and surgical biopsy. Biopsy findings associated with lung mass will depend on tumor histology. Common types of lung tissue biopsy for pulmonary mass, include conventional bronchoscopic-guided transbronchial biopsy, bronchoscopic-transbronchial needle aspiration, endobronchial ultrasound-guided sheath transbronchial biopsy, and endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration. Common indications for biopsy in lung mass include; suspected lung cancer, malignant features (lymph node involvement).
Other Diagnostic Studies
Biopsy
Biopsy for lung mass may be classified into 2 categories:[1]
- Bronchoscopy
- Transthoracic needle biopsy
- Needle core biopsy
- Surgical
- Wedge resection
- The preferred biopsy technique for lung mass is wedge resection.
- Indications for biopsy in lung mass, include:[1]
- Suspected lung cancer
- Determination of tumor histologic subtype
- Characterization of genetic mutations
- Contraindications for biopsy in lung mass, include:[1]
Non-Surgical Biopsy
Bronchoscopy
- Common bronchoscopy biopsy techniques for lung mass, include:[1]
- Conventional bronchoscopic-guided transbronchial biopsy
- Bronchoscopic-transbronchial needle aspiration
- Endobronchial ultrasound-guided sheath transbronchial biopsy
- Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration
- Indications for bronchoscopy in lung mass, include:[1]
Transthoracic needle biopsy
- Usually followed by CT guidance
- Indications for transthoracic needle biopsy in pulmonary mass include:[1]
- Peripheral nodules
- Nodules close to the chest wall
- No fitness for surgery
Surgical Biopsy
- Surgical excision is the mainstay therapy for malignant lung mass.
- Surgical excision is also the primary choice for the definitive diagnosis of malignant lung mass.
- In lung mass, surgical procedure selection will depend on the size, margins, and size of the tumor.
- Common surgical procedures for the treatment of lung mass, include:
- Wedge resection
- Lobectomy
- Segmentectomy
- Lung volume reduction surgery
