Neck Ultrasound by Respiratory Physicians in Patients With Lung Cancer

Study Description
Brief Summary:
This is a study of routine neck ultrasound performed by respiratory physicians in patients with mediastinal lymphadenopathy and suspected lung cancer

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment
Lung Cancer Metastatic Nodes, Lung Diagnostic Test: Neck ultrasound guide lymph node sampling

Detailed Description:

In the first phase of the study a respiratory physician was trained to perform neck ultrasound and needle sampling of enlarged cervical lymph nodes according to preset criteria. In the second phase patients with suspected lung cancer and enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes underwent routine neck ultrasound and enlarged cervical lymph nodes were sampled using fine needle and or core needle biopsy.

The outcomes of interest in the study were the rate of malignant cervical lymphadenopathy defined as pathological evidence of cancer in neck lymph node samples consistent with a lung primary, adequacy of needle sampling, patient reported experience assessed by a visual analogue of discomfort associated with needle neck sampling and EBUS, and the proportion of patients that had nodal upstaging

Arms and Interventions
Group/Cohort Intervention/treatment
Suspected lung cancer
Suspected and later on confirmed lung cancer with evidence of mediastinal lymphadenopathy on computerised tomography
Diagnostic Test: Neck ultrasound guide lymph node sampling
Neck ultrasound done first and lymph nodes larger than 5 mm that are technically feasible are sampled using fine needle aspiration and/or core needle biopsy

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Adequacy of lymph node sampling [ Time Frame: 7 days ]
    Presence of lymphocytes or malignant cells in biopsy samples


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Proportion of patients with malignant cervical lymphadenopathy [ Time Frame: 7 days ]
    Presence of malignant cells consistent with lung cancer in cervical lymph node samples

  2. Proportion of patients with nodal status upstaged [ Time Frame: 7 days ]
    Defined as a change from cN2 to cN3 according to the 8th edition of the Tumour Node Metastasis TNM staging system
