Transbronchial Lung Biopsy

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1977
INTRODUCTION Transbronchial lung biopsy (TBB) is a safe and effective tool useful for the diagnosis of a wide variety of diffuse and focal pulmonary diseases. TBB is regularly performed by 69% of practicing physicians documented in a survey of 1,800 North American pulmonary and critical care physicians [1].

Evaluation of Transbronchial Biopsy of the Lung

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1977
Transbronchial biopsy of the lung through the fiberoptic bronchoscope is becoming a widely utilized clinical diagnostic technic. The authors reviewed the histologic features of 109 consecutive cases. The primary problem is the small size of the pulmonary tissue samples obtained, which is further compounded by an apparent mechanical inability to enter ...

A Simplified Technique for Transbronchial Lung Biopsy

Radiology, 1973
Passing an endotracheal tube instead of a large or modified Metras catheter through the larynx ensures that the catheter can be placed easily in the appropriate lung segment, minimizes laryngeal irritation, prevents laryngeal spasm, allows more breathing space in the airway, and facilitates prompt resuscitation if respiratory distress or cardiac arrest

Transbronchial biopsy in diffuse lung disease

Chest, 1978
A an initial diagnostic procedure in diffuse and localized lung disease, transbronchial lung biopsy ( TBB ) offers an attractive alternative to open lung biopsy. In the past, TBB was carried out by inserting a flexible forceps through a rigid, opentube bronchoscope or a catheter.’5 More recently, this technique has been popularized by passing the ...

Transbronchial Lung Biopsy (A Technical Contribution)

Diseases of the Chest, 1968
SUMMARY In 21 patients with diffuse lung disease, 27 transbronchial lung biopsies have been performed by means of flexible forceps introduced into the bronchial tree through a Metras radiopaque catheter with a cuff at its terminal end. In eight patients with clinically ascertained diffuse pulmonary lesions, biopsies helped to confirm their diagnostic

Transbronchial Lung Biopsy

2013
Transbronchial Lung biopsy (TBBx) also known as “Bronchoscopic Lung Biopsy” is one of the most important sampling procedures performed during flexible bronchoscopy. In majority of cases, TBBx is performed under conscious sedation in an outpatient setting.

Transbronchial Biopsy of Peripheral Lung Lesiosn

Radiology, 1967
Every case of pulmonary carcinoma is seen at one time or another by the radiologist. Usually, the first time he identifies the lesion it is already all too obviously a carcinoma and a differential diagnosis is superfluous. Sometimes, however, the roentgen appearance is not conclusive or may even be deceptive.

Correlation between transbronchial lung biopsy and lung cytology

Revista Española de Patología, 2020
Respiratory diseases are an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although conventional histopathology is the gold standard for their diagnosis, cytology is a useful adjunctive diagnostic test. In the present study we evaluated the efficacy of cytology in providing a rapid diagnosis.

Transbronchial Lung Biopsy in the Compromised Host

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1978
ABSTRACT To the Editor.— Pulmonary infiltrates can be one of the more challenging problems encountered in immunocompromised patients, and the transbronchial lung biopsy, as emphasized by Feldman, Pennington, and Ehrie (238:1377, 1977), can help resolve this.

Transbronchial Lung Biopsy in Sarcoidosis

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1980
Abstract In order to determine if the diagnostic yield of the transbronchial lung biopsy in sarcoidosis is dependent upon the number of biopsies, a study was designed to examine individual specimens from 6 biopsies in patients with Stage II sarcoidosis.
