摘要
Mediastinal or N2 disease is the most important factor in selecting the optimal treatment strategy in patients without distant metastasis.A direct surgical resection has not generally been accepted as a treatment modality in whom mediastinal nodal involvement is demonstrated.Patients with lung cancer can be diagnosed as clinical N2 disease based on CT and PET-CT characteristics of the mediastinum and the clinical presentation.Invasive diagnostic modalities used in the detection of N2 disease are:mediastinoscopy,endoesophageal ultrasound guided biopsy(EUS),transbronchial needle aspiration(TBNA),endobronchial ultrasound guided biopsy(EBUS),video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS),and mediastinotomy/extended mediastinoscopy.In this article,the author discusses about invasive and noninvasive techniques on the evaluation of mediastinal disease and presents his experience on this topic.
