Background and Objectives: Interstitial lung diseases have always been an issue for pulmonary and rheumatology physicians. Computed tomography scans with a high-resolution protocol and bronchoalveolar lavage have been used along with biochemical blood ...

We present a case report of transbronchial cryobiopsy proven diffuse amyloid cystic lung disease complicating a homozygous Val122Ile (V122I) transthyretin mutated amyloidosis (ATTRm). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case in the literature

ABSTRACT Background Primary pulmonary mesenchymal neoplasms with EWSR1::CREM fusion are rare. These lesions are challenging to diagnose by morphology and immunohistochemistry alone. Case A 66‐year‐old woman (ex‐smoker) was found to have a 1.3‐cm right lower lobe lung nodule that had grown very slowly over a 9‐year period.

Use of pleural cryobiopsy for tissue culture specimens: a case report
A 43‐year‐old man presented with cough. His chest X‐ray showed a left‐sided pleural effusion. We suspected tuberculous pleurisy (TP), and thoracoscopy under local anaesthesia was performed. It showed entire pleura with scattered nodules.

Background: Thoracoscopic pleural biopsy is an efficient procedure in patients with undiagnosed exudative pleurisy. Rigid or flexible forceps have been widely used for this procedure.

We assessed the diagnostic yield of EBUS‐guided transbronchial mediastinal cryobiopsy (EBUS‐TBMC) compared with EBUS‐transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS‐TBNA) in patients with suspected mediastinal lymphoproliferative disorders (LPDs). EBUS‐TBMC was superior to EBUS‐TBNA and achieved a high diagnostic yield in patients with suspected mediastinal ...

Cryobiopsy In Flexi-Rigid Pleuroscopy in a Region with Low Mesothelioma Prevalence
Background: The use of conventional flexible forceps during flex-rigid pleuroscopy can be challenging when sampling hard and thickened pleura. Pleuroscopic cryobiopsy is an emerging field, with various early studies demonstrating good yield and minimal ...

When compared to conventional forceps biopsy, the use of a flexible cryoprobe allows for the sampling of endobronchial lesions, yielding well-preserved, circumferential, and substantial specimens, resulting in a higher diagnostic yield, as demonstrated ...

Transbronchial cryobiopsy for diagnosis of pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis
Pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (PPFE) is a rare subtype of idiopathic interstitial pneumonias. PPFE mostly affects the upper lung zones and is characterized radiologically by pleural and subpleural fibrotic thickening with a reticular pattern. There is no established treatment for PPFE but lung transplantation can be considered for advanced stage ...

This review highlights changes relevant to pathologists in the updated multidisciplinary classification of interstitial pneumonias. Changes include expansion beyond idiopathic disease, subclassification as interstitial (fibrotic vs non‐fibrotic) and alveolar filling disorders, expansion to include additional patterns (e.g.
