Over the past few years, demographic profile of lung cancer has changed. However, most reports are limited by small numbers, short follow-up period, and show an inconsistent pattern. A comprehensive evaluation changing trends over a long period not been done.Consecutive patients were studied 10-year from January 2008 to March 2018 at All India Institute Medical Sciences, New Delhi, relevant clinical information, survival outcomes analyzed.A total 1862 evaluated, with mean (SD) age 59 (11.1)...
Flexible bronchoscopy (FB) is commonly performed by respiratory physicians for diagnostic as well therapeutic purposes. However, practices vary widely across India and worldwide. The three major organizations of the country supported a national-level expert group that formulated comprehensive guideline document FB based on detailed appraisal available evidence. These guidelines are an attempt to provide bronchoscopist with most scientifically sound practical approach bronchoscopy. It...
Abstract Background Delays that postpone the evaluation and management of malignancy may lead to considerable morbidity. The primary objective this study was assess time required diagnose treat lung cancer at an Indian public referral center predominantly serves lower-income patients. Methods A review patients diagnosed with between January 2008 December 2016 completed. We computed median intervals inter-quartile ranges symptom onset, definitive diagnostic investigation, confirmed histologic...
Indian data on treatment outcomes and survival in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remain scarce.A retrospective review of 537 NSCLC patients treated at a tertiary care facility North India from January 2008 to March 2018 was done assess response terms objective rate (ORR), disease control (DCR), progression-free (PFS), overall (OS).Median age enrolled 60 years (range: 26-89 years). The majority were males (78.2%) smokers (66.5%). Adenocarcinoma (51.2%) the most common...

Introduction: The evidence for using vacuum suction during EBUS is sparse and the optimal pressure obtaining adequate samples has not yet been determined. Our aim was to assess influence of on adequacy diagnostic yield EBUS-TBNA. Material methods: This single-center, prospective, randomized, non-inferiority trial assessed whether no-suction 10 mL are inferior 20 EBUS-TBNA aspirates. Results: Three hundred twenty three lymph nodes were sampled Baseline characteristics comparable in groups....
Given the increasing number of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in India, a comparative analysis between under 40 years and those older age at major public referral centre would provide insight into phenotypic patterns this group.NSCLC who were accessioned within clinic database Pulmonary Medicine Department all India institute medical sciences - Delhi 2008 2019 reviewed. Patients or younger 60 selected categorised as young patients, respectively. Baseline clinical...
