Abstract

Forceps biopsy is a crucial procedure in bronchoscopy aimed at obtaining tissue samples from the respiratory tract for diagnostic purposes. This study aims to identify the characteristics of forceps biopsy, bronchial brush, and bronchial washing in patients suspected of having lung cancer at Dr. H. Abdul Moeloek General Hospital. This descriptive retrospective study collected data from patient medical records of those who underwent bronchoscopy with forceps biopsy in April 2024. 24 patients meeting the inclusion criteria were selected. The chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results is 6 patients (25%) were diagnosed with lung cancer. Forceps biopsy showed a higher positive rate compared to bronchoscopy without forceps biopsy. The most common lesion locations were Right Upper Lobe, Right Middle Lobe, Right Lower Lobe, and Left Upper Lobe, each at 20%. Squamous cell carcinoma was the most commonly found type of cancer (4 patients). The statistic test showed no significant correlation between lung cancer and age (p = 0.478) or gender (p = 0.586), but a significant correlation with the use of forceps biopsy (p = 0.046). Bronchoscopy with forceps biopsy provides higher positive results in diagnosing lung cancer. This study underscores the importance of forceps biopsy in improving diagnostic accuracy at Dr. H. Abdul Moeloek General Hospital, Lampung.
