| الوصف: | Introduction Haemoptysis can be a feature of lung cancer and patients are typically fast-tracked for evaluation with chest radiography, contrast-enhanced CT and fibreoptic bronchoscopy (FOB).Objective We aim to explore whether FOB should be conducted as a component of the routine evaluation of non-massive haemoptysis, especially in the context of suspected lung cancer.Methods MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Library were searched for studies comparing FOB with CT in the evaluation of non-massive haemoptysis while reporting at least one of the listed primary outcomes. Primary outcomes include sensitivity of diagnostic modality with respect to lung cancer. Secondary outcomes include detection of other aetiologies such as infection. Results were synthesised using a random effects meta-analysis. Sensitivity analysis was performed for patient age group and year of study. Risk of bias assessment was carried out with the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2 tool.Results A total of 2273 citations were screened and 11 studies were included, comprising a total sample size of 2015 patients with 226 confirmed cases of lung cancer. A total of 1816 and 1734 patients received a CT scan and FOB, respectively. The pooled sensitivities for detection of lung cancer using CT scan and bronchoscopy were 98% (95% CI 93.0% to 99.0%) and 86% (95% CI 63.0% to 95.0%), respectively. The sensitivity of CT was higher than that of FOB for both primary and secondary outcomes.Conclusion This study suggests that bronchoscopy does not offer significant additional diagnostic benefit in the evaluation of patients presenting with non-massive haemoptysis and a negative CT scan. |
