Abstrakt: Background: Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT)-guided bronchoscopic sampling of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) is associated with superior diagnostic outcomes. However, the added value of a robotic-assisted bronchoscopy platform in CBCT-guided diagnostic procedures is unknown.
Methods: We performed a retrospective review of 100 consecutive PPLs sampled using conventional flexible bronchoscopy under CBCT guidance (FB-CBCT) and 100 consecutive PPLs sampled using an electromagnetic navigation-guided robotic-assisted bronchoscopy platform under CBCT guidance (RB-CBCT). Patient demographics, PPL features, procedural characteristics, and procedural outcomes were compared between the 2 cohorts.
Results: Patient and PPL characteristics were similar between the FB-CBCT and RB-CBCT cohorts, and there were no significant differences in diagnostic yield (88% vs. 90% for RB-CBCT, P=0.822) or incidence of complications between the 2 groups. As compared with FB-CBCT cases, RB-CBCT cases were significantly shorter (median 58 min vs. 92 min, P<0.0001) and used significantly less diagnostic radiation (median dose area product 5114 µGy•m2 vs. 8755 µGy•m2, P<0.0001).
Conclusion: CBCT-guided bronchoscopy with or without a robotic-assisted bronchoscopy platform is a safe and effective method for sampling PPLs, although the integration of a robotic-assisted platform was associated with significantly shorter procedure times and significantly less radiation exposure.
