Comparison of bronchial brushing, washing and forceps biopsies in diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma
Five hundred eighty patients underwent diagnostic flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy: during June 1988 to March 1993 at the bronchoscopy center of Kerman university of medical sciences. Seventy six specimens were obtained from patients with bronchogenic carcinoma and 155 from patients with benign disease of the lung. The efficiency of brushing and washing techniques was compared with forceps b...
متن کاملLung Carcinoma Metastasis to the Distal Part of Index Finger: A Case Report
Although acrometastases are rare but clinically they are considered important. Their etiology is quite different from the metastases to other sites; bronchogenic carcinoma is by far the most frequent case. The prognosis is always similar to metastatic bronchial cancer with an average survival of three mo...
متن کاملBronchial needle aspiration in the diagnosis of bronchial carcinoma.
Sixty consecutive patients with central bronchial carcinomas were studied by fibreoptic bronchoscopy. In all forceps biopsy and bronchial needle aspiration were performed, and in 54 bronchial brushings were obtained. The combination of bronchial brushings and forceps biopsy diagnosed bronchial carcinoma of a defined cell type in 80% of patients. Bronchial needle aspiration was the most effectiv...
متن کاملFibreoptic bronchoscopy: effect of multiple bronchial biopsies on diagnostic yield in bronchial carcinoma.
The findings in bronchial biopsy specimens obtained at fibreoptic bronchoscopy in 271 patients with bronchial carcinoma were reviewed. Fifty-nine per cent of 703 specimens taken from the site of bronchoscopically visible tumours in 215 patients provided evidence of carcinoma. Unequivocal histological evidence of carcinoma was obtained in 78.6% of the 215 patients with visible tumours. When only...
متن کاملDiagnostic value of bronchial wash, bronchial brushing, fine needle aspi- ration cytology versus combined bronchial wash and bronchial brushing in the diagnosis of primary lung carcinomas at a tertiary care hospital
Different cytological techniques have been successfully applied for the diagnosis of primary lung cancers. Flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy has served as a major breakthrough in respiratory cytology, as bronchial brushings, washings and fine needle aspiration have become more easy, accessible and cost effective.This study aims to determine the diagnostic value of bronchial wash (BW), bronchial ...
متن کاملEfficacy of Bronchial Brushings and Trans-Bronchial Needle Aspiration in Diagnosing Carcinoma Lung
Bronchial brushing (BB) and the more recent trans-bronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) are well established techniques performed using flexible fiberoptic bronchoscope, for sampling trachobronchial lesions suspected of malignancy. Our aim was to assess the efficacy of these two techniques in diagnosing carcinoma lung, when used individually as well as in combination, taking bronchial biopsy as th...
