[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 کاملThe diagnostic accuracy of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) in mediastinal tuberculous lymphadenitis
Background/aim: Mediastinal lymph nodes are the second most commonly affected lymph nodes in tuberculous lymphadenitis. It is often difficult to diagnose tuberculosis in patients with lymphadenopathy without parenchymal lesions. The aim of this study was to describe the diagnostic utility of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) in patients with isolated m...
متن کاملImpact of sedation technique on the diagnostic accuracy of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES There is a paucity of data concerning the impact of the sedation technique used for endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) on diagnostic accuracy. The aim of this retrospective study was to compare the diagnostic accuracy of EBUS-TBNA in deep and moderate sedations, and to investigate other possible determinants of diagnostic accur...
متن کامل22-gauge core vs 22-gauge aspiration needle for endoscopic ultrasound-guided sampling of abdominal masses
AIM To compare the aspiration needle (AN) and core biopsy needle (PC) in endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) of abdominal masses. METHODS Consecutive patients referred for EUS-FNA were included in this prospective single-center trial. Each patient underwent a puncture of the lesion with both standard 22-gauge (G) AN (Echo Tip Ultra; Cook Medical, Bloomington, Indiana...
