Diffuse pulmonary meningotheliomatosis diagnosed by transbronchial lung biopsy.
Minute pulmonary meningothelial-like nodules (MPMNs) are usually unique lesions in the lung parenchyma. Diffuse pulmonary meningotheliomatosis, which is presented as multiple MPMNs, has been less frequently described. MPMNs are mainly asymptomatic and are diagnosed after lung surgery or during autopsy.

Overall, t...

Transbronchial Lung biopsy (TBBx) also known as “Bronchoscopic Lung Biopsy” is one of the most important sampling procedures performed during fl exible bronchoscopy. In majority of cases, TBBx is performed under conscious sedation in an outpatient setting.
