Diagnostic accuracy of cytology and biopsy in primary bronchial carcinoma.
The accuracy of diagnosis in 656 patients with the four common histopathological types of primary lung cancer has been assessed by comparing the cell type diagnosis made on cytological and histological investigation with that determined by examination of the surgically resected or necroscopy specimen. The accuracy of diagnosis achieved by cytological examination of sputum and bronchial aspirate...

Background & Aims: Lung cancer as the most common cancer leads to 30% and 26% of deaths in men and women, respectively. Most patients with lung cancer are diagnosed in advanced stages, so their surgical procedures are not often successful. Therefore, early diagnosis has the key role in treatment and life expectancy of patients. The aim of this study was to determine sensitivity, specificit...

متن کامل[Yield of biopsy, brushing and bronchial washing through fiberbronchoscopy in the diagnosis of lung cancer with visible lesions].
BACKGROUND The combination of endobronchial biopsy with cytological brushing is considered the best procedures for the diagnosis of lung cancer during bronchoscopy. AIM To asses the diagnostic yield for lung cancer (with visible endobronchial alterations at endoscopy) of three fiberoptic bronchoscopy procedures: endobronchial biopsy, cytological brushing and bronchial cytological washings. ...
