Efficacy of combined transbronchial lung cryobiopsy and conventional forceps biopsy for lung malignancies: a prospective cohort study [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 There are few prospective reports of transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) for malignant tumors in combination with forceps biopsy. We investigated the clinical parameters in which TBLC is superior to forceps biopsy. This is a prospective cohort study to

Endobronchial ultrasound-guided intranodal forceps biopsy (EBUS-IFB) using 19G needle tract: First case series from India [PDF]
Lung India, 2023 EBUS-TBNA is a well-established procedure for diagnosis of mediastinal lymphadenopathy replacing the need for mediastinoscopy. In certain diseases like lymphomas, the yield is reportedly 50%, sarcoidosis lymph nodes also give a yield of 80% with EBUS and

The diagnostic accuracy of conventional forceps biopsy compared to ESD
Open Medicine (Poland), 2017 conventional forceps biopsy (CFB) is the most popular way to screen for gastric epithelial neoplasia (GEN). Our study aimed to compare the diagnostic accuracy between conventional forceps biopsy and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD).
