The value of transbronchial lung biopsy in the diagnosis of lymphangioleiomyomatosis. [PDF]
Abstract Background Transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) in the diagnosis of lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is not a common approach, although TBLB is often performed in diffuse lung diseases. We aimed to examine the diagnostic value and safety of TBLB in LAM patients based on the data collected in our center.
