Mediastinal lymphangioma treated using endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration.
Lymphangiomas are localized malformations of the lymphatic system that most commonly occur in the head and neck. However, less than 1% of all lymphangiomas are confined to the mediastinum. The standard treatment has been surgical excision, but the involvement of vital structures in the area local to the lymphangioma makes total excision virtually impossible in most cases. To our knowledge, ther...

متن کاملConventional vs. endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration in the diagnosis of mediastinal lymphadenopathies.
The aim of this study was to determine whether or not radial probe endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS)-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) is superior to conventional TBNA in the diagnosis of mediastinal lymphadenopathies in routine clinical practice. Consecutive patients, who were referred for TBNA, were randomized to conventional TBNA and EBUS-guided TBNA groups. Patients were also gro...
