[Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration].
In the last years, several techniques have been developed to obtain a prompt diagnosis or rule out lung cancer. Endobronchial ultrasound- guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is a minimally invasive procedure with a high diagnostic yield for mediastinal and central pulmonary lesions. This procedure is especially useful for lung cancer diagnosis and mediastinal staging. Two differ...
متن کاملEndobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration
In a recent issue of CHEST (January 2011), Gounant et al 1 showed that dedicated linear echoendoscope endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) needles are able to release metal particles, probably by friction between the stylet and the needle, with a potential risk of injecting particles into nodes. After reading this article, we are a bit confused for severa...
متن کاملMediastinitis and pericarditis after endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration
A 73-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for further investigation of multiple lung nodules and lymphadenopathy that were observed on chest radiography. Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) was performed to sample the lower paratracheal lymph node (4R), leading to a definitive diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. About 2 weeks after EBU...
متن کاملEndobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration in diagnosing mediastinal lymphadenopathy
CONTEXT The diagnosis of mediastinal lymphadenopathy is always a challenge. There always a need of a technique that is highly accurate as well as safe for diagnosis the same. AIMS The aim of the study is to assess the clinical usefulness and safety profile of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) in diagnosing the patients with mediastinal lymphadenopath...
متن کاملTechnical Aspects of Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration
Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is becoming a standard method for invasive mediastinal staging and for the diagnosis of paratracheal and peribronchial lesions. It is essential to understand the technical aspects of EBUS-TBNA to ensure safe and efficient procedures. In this review, we discuss the practical aspects to be considered during EBUS-TBNA, in...
