Novel Robotic-Assisted Cryobiopsy for Peripheral Pulmonary Lesions [PDF]
PURPOSE: Tissue acquisition in lung cancer is vital for multiple reasons. Primary reasons reported for molecular testing failure in lung cancer biopsy specimens include insufficient amount of tumor cells provided and inadequate tissue quality.

Impaction of an Endobronchial Watanabe Spigot Within a Tracheostomy Tube. [PDF]
We describe a case of endobronchial Watanabe spigot (EWS) impaction within a tracheostomy tube, a complication not previously reported. This case highlights the importance of follow‐up imaging and careful inspection of tracheostomy tubes for possible spigot impaction.

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.

Combination of the Archimedes Navigation System and cryobiopsy in diagnosis of diffuse lung disease
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of the Archimedes Navigation System (Broncus Medical, San Jose, CA, USA) for guidance during transbronchial cryobiopsy and the incidence of complications in patients with diffuse lung disease.

Background A balloon occlusion technique is suggested for use in cryobiopsy for interstitial lung diseases because of the bleeding risk. However, it may interfere with selection of the involved bronchus for peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs).

Morphometrical analysis of transbronchial cryobiopsies [PDF]
The recent introduction of bronchoscopically recovered cryobiopsy of lung tissue has opened up new possibilities in the diagnosis of neoplastic and non-neoplastic lung diseases in various aspects. Most notably the morphological diagnosis of peripheral lung biopsies promises to achieve a better yield with a high quality of specimens.
