Transbronchial Needle Aspiration for Histology Specimens

Chest, 1989
Fine-gauge (22-G) transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) has significantly added to the diagnostic yield of FOB, and in some institutions has become routine in staging bronchogenic carcinoma. Cytologic examination of the specimen obtained by n228G TBNA, however, has several limitations.

Transbronchial Needle Aspiration in the Practice of Bronchoscopy

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1989
We reviewed the records of all patients who underwent bronchoscopy with a flexible fiberoptic instrument and transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) at our institution between August 1983 and December 1985. During 85 bronchoscopy sessions, 89 TBNAs were performed in 84 patients. Seventy-three aspirates were obtained from 68 patients who were eventually

Transbronchial Needle Aspiration in the Diagnosis of Sarcoidosis

Chest, 1984
A total of 258 patients with suspected sarcoidosis underwent transbronchial needle aspiration lymph node biopsies and forceps bronchial biopsies during rigid bronchoscopy. Transbronchial needle aspiration biopsies revealed noncaseating granulomas in 66.3 percent of patients.

Flexible Transbronchial Needle Aspiration

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1984
Flexible transbronchial needle aspiration provides a bronchoscopic method for the diagnosis and staging of mediastinal neoplasms. Increasing experience has confirmed the usefulness of this procedure and has identified several technical factors that influence its yield and safety.

Pneumomediastinum Complicating Transbronchial Needle Aspiration

Journal of Bronchology & Interventional Pulmonology, 2009
Transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) is a safe procedure with a reported complication rate of less than 1%. Pneumomediastinum after TBNA has not been reported in the English literature in the past. We present the case of a 65-year-old woman with widely metastatic small cell carcinoma, who developed pneumomediastinum after flexible bronchoscopy with ...

Flexible Transbronchial Needle Aspiration in the Diagnosis of Sarcoidosis

Chest, 1994
The histopathologic diagnosis of sarcoidosis requires the presence of noncaseating granulomas. Transbronchoscopic lung biopsy (TBLB) has been considered the procedure of choice when less invasive tissue samples are unavailable. A total of 51 consecutive patients suspected of having sarcoidosis underwent combined TBLB and flexible transbronchial needle ...

Transbronchial Needle Aspiration in the Diagnosis of Bronchogenic Carcinoma

Chest, 1987
Transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) was performed as a diagnostic procedure in 91 consecutive patients ultimately proven to have bronchogenic carcinoma. Results of TBNA were compared, in the same patients, to the diagnostic yield of cytologic examination of sputum, endobronchial brushings and washings, and endobronchial/transbronchial biopsy.

Transbronchial Needle Aspiration in the Diagnosis of Intrathoracic Lymphadenopathy

Respiration, 2002
<i>Background:</i> Transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) of intrathoracic lymph nodes has been shown to be useful in the diagnosis and staging of bronchogenic carcinoma. The usefulness of TBNA has not been widely investigated in benign disease other than sarcoidosis.

Transbronchial fine needle aspiration in clinical practice

Cytopathology, 1995
We review our experience of transbronchial fine needle aspiration (TBFNA) over a 3-year period. A total of 112 TBFNAs were performed on 95 patients. Four aspirates were from peripheral lung lesions, 20 from non-ulcerated submucosal infiltrative lesions, 19 from mediastinal abnormalities close to the tracheobronchial tree, and the remaining 69 were for ...
