“…The TB is still the gold standard approach for most physicians at diagnosis [ 84 , 158 , 159 , 168 , 169 , 170 ]. However, a combined approach associating at the same time an NGS analysis on matched TB and LB could be of strong interest in aiming to establish a complete molecular portrait of the tumor, which can take into consideration the genomic alteration of the primary and the metastatic site(s) [ 171 , 172 , 173 , 174 , 175 ]. Though rare, if no tissue is available at diagnosis LB NGS is the only alternative in identifying a molecular alteration accessible to a targeted therapy [ 170 , 176 , 177 , 178 ].…”
