Abstract:
Background and objective To discuss the clinical application of mediastinoscopy in the differential di-agnosis and preoperative staging on lung cancer. Methods A total of 361 cases of patients were included in the study, of which 162 cases were undiagnosed mediastinal tumor patients before operation, and 199 patients were suspected or diagnosed with lung cancer or mediastinal lymph nodes enlargment(short diameter≥1.0 cm). All patients underwent surgery, including 308 cases standard cervical mediastinoscopy (SCM) , 53 cases parasternal mediastinoscopy (PM). Results Taking pathology diag-nosis as the gold standard, the mediastinoscopy diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, speciifcity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value are 98.11%, 97.62%, 100%, 100%, 91.67%and 98.28%, 98.03%, a 100%, 100%, 100%to mediastinal masses and mediastinal lymph node metastasis of lung cancer. Total seven cases suffered from complications of surgery-related, the complication rate was 1.93 percent (P<0.05). Conclusion hTe trauma of the mediastinoscopy is slight, which is safe, reliable, able to take in suffcient tissue quantities. Mediastinoscopy is highly helpful not only in diagnostic of mediastinal mass, but also in the differential diagnosis of lung cancer, and it’s an important method and the gold standard of preoperative staging on lung cancer.
