EUS-FNA Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC diagnosis therapy

Abstract

A 38-year-old lifelong smoker woman with a diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma was referred to us to perform an endoscopic ultrasound with fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) procedure in order to define liver lesions suspicious for metastases. She had already performed a percutaneous procedure with ultrasound guidance, which turned out to be not diagnostic. EUS-FNA is an endoscopic technique that is increasingly acquiring a key role in the diagnosis, staging and therapy of lung cancer and lung cancer metastases.
