Experience with mediastinoscopy [PDF]
Six hundred and eighty diagnostic mediastinoscopies are presented. Of these, 552 were classical, 114 anterior mediastinal, 12 posterior mediastinal, and 2 from below the sternum. In addition, 20 therapeutic mediastinoscopies were performed for the insertion of a pacemaker electrode or evacuation of a mediastinal cyst.

Three-Dimensional Printed Model of the Mediastinum for Cardiothoracic Surgery Resident Education [PDF]
Background: Mediastinoscopy remains an important component of lung cancer staging. The development of endobronchial ultrasonography has meant residents perform fewer mediastinoscopies. We hypothesized that a 3-dimensional printed model of the mediastinum

Accuracy of endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) in the staging of lung cancer – A comparison of staging EBUS with postoperative pathological nodal staging [PDF]
Background: Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial fine-needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) has replaced mediastinoscopy as the preferred investigation for evaluating mediastinum in staging lung cancer.

Anaesthesia for mediastinoscopy
Mediastinoscopy is a diagnostic procedure, which was first described by Carlens in 1959. Despite the availability of sophisticated imaging techniques (e.g. positron emission tomography), mediastinoscopy remains essential in the staging of lung cancer because of its high sensitivity (.80%) and specificity (100%).
