Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration of an intravascular sarcoma metastasis.
The role of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) in the diagnosis of endovascular lesions has rarely been described. We report a case of EBUS-TBNA of a solid mass in the left pulmonary artery in a patient with synovial sarcoma of the kidney, which was performed without complications and led to the diagnosis of metastatic disease. EBUS-TBNA seems to be a r...
متن کاملA Case report on the Diagnosis of a Rare Pleural Tumor With Endobronchial Ultrasound
Convex endobronchial ultrasound (C-EBUS)-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) is an effective tool for the diagnosis of hilar, mediastinal, and central parenchymal lung lesions. However, it has a limited utility for pleural-based masses. We report a unique case of a pleural synovial sarcoma recurrence that was diagnosed by C-EBUS. The patient had a history of inguinal synovial sarcoma...
متن کاملYoung Male’s Post Appendectomy Complication of Pulmonary Thromboembolism
The main goal of this report was to share with clinicians an atypical presentation of pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) in a young male`s post-appendectomy, whom he had no significant predisposing factors for such disease. The case also introduced for re-examining the challenges of PTE clinical manifestations which may mimic other differential diagnosis. PTE is an abrupt blockage of the pulmonary...
متن کاملThe Use of Endobronchial Ultrasound in the Diagnosis of Subacute Pulmonary Histoplasmosis
Objective. Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) utility in diagnosis in malignant and granulomatous mediastinal disease has been well demonstrated. We propose to examine the role of EBUS transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) in the diagnosis of subacute pulmonary histoplasmosis (SPH) with mediastinal lymphadenopathy in an area where histoplasmosis is endemic. Methods. A retrospective review w...
متن کاملEndobronchial mass formation after endobronchial ultrasound–transbronchial needle aspiration mimicking implantation metastasis
Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) has been widely used for diagnosing intrathoracic lymphadenopathy. Here, we present two cases of endobronchial polyp formation after an EBUS-TBNA for suspicious malignant lymph nodes. An inflammatory polyp should be considered as a possible differential diagnosis for a newly developed mass after an EBUS-TBNA.
