THE DIAGNOSTIC YIELD OF TRANSBRONCHIAL LUNG BIOPSY IN DIFFUSE INFILTRATIVE PULMONARY DISEASES BY PLAIN CUP FORCEPS. A STUDY OF 54 CASES IN IRAN
The technique of transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) has expanded the diagnostic yield of bronchoscopy . In this article we are presenting 54 patients with diffuse pulmonary parenchymal involvement who underwent this procedure during six years between June 1980 and December 1989. The diagnostic yield of this technique in diffuse pulmonary parenchymal disease is great and was 66 percent exclu...
متن کاملDiagnostic flexible bronchoscopy and accessory techniques.
We reviewed the most important diagnostic procedures implemented by means of flexible bronchoscopy, including bronchoalveolar lavage, bronchial brushing and biopsy, transbronchial lung biopsy and transbronchial needle aspiration. We reviewed the tools, techniques and potential complications of this examination.
متن کاملDiagnostic Yield and Safety of Cryoprobe Transbronchial Lung Biopsy in Diffuse Parenchymal Lung Diseases: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
BACKGROUND Transbronchial lung biopsy with flexible forceps is the most commonly used technique in diagnosis of diseases diffusely involving the lung parenchyma. Recently, transbronchial lung biopsy using the flexible cryoprobe (cryo-transbronchial lung biopsy) has also been reported. Herein, we perform a systematic review and meta-analysis describing the efficacy and safety of cryo-transbronch...

Background: Transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) is an attractive alternative to open lung biopsy as an initial diagnostic procedure for patients with diffuse parenchymal disease or localized densities beyond direct endoscopic vision. TBLB can be carried out safely without fluoroscopy in patients with diffuse lung disease. Since in our bronchoscopic department fluoroscopy is not available, we plan...

متن کاملDelayed pneumothorax after bronchoscopy in a lung transplant patient.
Lung transplant patients commonly undergo transbronchial biopsy to evaluate for rejection. Post-biopsy radiographs are used to exclude pneumothorax, one of the most common major complications. We report a lung transplant patient who developed a pneumothorax 5 months after transbronchial biopsy, with multiple intervening chest computed tomograms documenting that the pneumothorax developed from t...
