Role of EUS for the evaluation of mediastinal adenopathy

Nov 15, 2016, 18:29 PM
Mediastinal lymphadenopathy may be detected by radiographic imaging (eg, chest radiograph, CT, or positron emission tomography [PET]) or by the presence of extrinsic compression of the esophagus detected during upper endoscopy (EGD). Malignant (eg, metastatic cancer, lymphoma), infectious (eg, tuberculosis, histoplasmosis), and systemic processes (eg, sarcoidosis) can cause mediastinal adenopathy. EUS can both identify and guide FNA of nodes. In the posterior and inferior mediastinum, EUS visualizes and directs transesophageal FNA of adenopathy. In the anterior mediastinum, endobronchial US (EBUS) visualizes and directs transbronchial FNA of mediastinal adenopathy. This guideline is an update of a previous ASGE document2 and discusses the role of EUS and EBUS in the evaluation of mediastinal adenopathy. The role of EUS in the evaluation of esophageal cancer is discussed in a separate guideline.
