Due to substantial improvements in molecular medicine for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), EBUS-TBNA is now an efficient method that provides adequate samples to test for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations and anaplastic lymphoma kinase gene arrangement following routine histopathology and immunohistochemistry (IHC)-based subtyping [3]. Here, EGFR is linked to non-small cell lung carcinoma.
