Comparison of cryobiopsy and forceps biopsy for the diagnosis of mediastinal lesions: A randomised clinical trial

open access: yesPulmonology
Introduction Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is the standard approach for lung cancer staging. However, its diagnostic utility for other mediastinal diseases might be hampered by the limited tissue retrieved ...

Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial cryobiopsy through a working channel potentially improving safety and efficacy

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine Case Reports
Endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS)-guided transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBCB) is a novel method for the biopsy of hilar and mediastinal lesions. Conventional cryobiopsy requires simultaneous removal of the cryoprobe and EBUS scope from the airway, resulting in

A new tool for bile duct tissue sampling: ex vivo clinical evaluation of intraductal cryobiopsy for cholangioscopy

open access: yesEndoscopy International Open, 2022
Background and study aims Indeterminate biliary strictures represent a major challenge in clinical diagnostics. Diagnostic yield of radiological, endoscopic imaging and histopathological diagnosis is insufficient. The cryobiopsy technique is a new method

Prospective cohort of cryobiopsy in interstitial lung diseases: a single center experience

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Rationale Transbronchial cryobiopsy has been increasingly used to diagnose interstitial lung diseases. However, there is uncertainty regarding its accuracy and risks, mainly due to a paucity of prospective or randomized trials comparing cryobiopsy to ...

Thin bronchoscopic cryobiopsy using a nasobronchial tube

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background Transbronchial lung cryobiopsy is useful when diagnosing lung lesions. However, prevention of associated bleeding complications is essential. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of our novel bronchoscopic cryobiopsy technique,

Adenocarcinoma originating in the anterior mediastinum diagnosed by endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial cryobiopsy: a case report

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine
Background Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial cryobiopsy (EBUS-cryobiopsy) is advantageous for collecting larger specimens with minimal crushing; however, it has not been widely used for mediastinal tumors.

Efficacy and safety of thoracoscopic cryobiopsy in patients with undiagnosed exudative pleural effusion

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2021
Background Pleural effusions are either transudate or exudate according to the biochemical analysis of aspirated pleural fluid. Thoracentesis or blind pleural biopsy may not provide a definitive diagnosis.

Integration of transbronchial cryobiopsy into multidisciplinary board decision: a single center analysis of one hundred consecutive patients with interstitial lung disease

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2021
Background Transbronchial cryobiopsy in the evaluation of patients with interstitial lung diseases (ILD) is expected to reduce the need for surgical lung biopsy (SLB).
