Bronchoscopic Removal of Aspergilloma in a 26‐Year‐Old Man [PDF]

Respirology Case Reports
A 26‐year‐old man with recurrent pulmonary tuberculosis and prior left pneumonectomy presented with progressive dyspnea. Chest computed tomography revealed a cavitary fungal ball in the right upper lobe, and elevated Aspergillus fumigatus IgG confirmed ...

Mobile Cone‐Beam CT‐Guided Transbronchial Cryobiopsy of a Penicillium Granuloma via the Right Post‐Eparterial Bronchus [PDF]

Respirology Case Reports
A right post‐eparterial bronchus (PEB) is a rare anatomical variant where an accessory bronchus arises inferior to the standard right upper lobe bronchus to supply the right upper lobe (RUL).

Close-to-lesion transbronchial biopsy: a novel technique to improve suitability of specimens for genetic testing in patients with peripheral pulmonary lesions

Scientific Reports, 2023
Bronchoscopy with radial-probe endobronchial ultrasound, a guide sheath, and electromagnetic navigation can improve the diagnostic yield of peripheral lung nodules. However, the suitability of specimens for genetic analysis remains unsatisfactory.

Flexible Bronchoscopy in the Management of Congenital Lobar Emphysema in the Neonate [PDF]

Canadian Respiratory Journal, 1998
This paper describes the case of a 3 kg neonate who had congenital lobar emphysema of the left upper lobe (LUL). He was in severe respiratory distress with a fraction of inspired oxygen of 0.8.

Transbronchial Diagnosis of a Pulmonary Peripheral Small Lesion Using an Ultrathin Bronchoscope With Virtual Bronchoscopic Navigation

Journal of Bronchology, 2002
Abstract:We report a patient with a pulmonary peripheral small lesion that was diagnosed using an ultrathin bronchoscope with virtual bronchoscopic (VB) navigation. In a 83-year-old man with pulmonary emphysema, chest computed tomography (CT) revealed a small lesion (18 × 14 mm) in the periphery ...

Comparative study of transbronchial cryobiopsy and transbronchial biopsy for diagnostic yield in peripheral pulmonary lesions [PDF]

Annals of Medicine
Background Transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBCB) is a minimally invasive technique that yields larger specimens than conventional transbronchial forceps biopsies (TBFB) and demonstrates superior diagnostic rates for interstitial lung diseases.

A retrospective study comparing the ultrathin versus conventional bronchoscope for performing radial endobronchial ultrasound in the evaluation of peripheral pulmonary lesions

Lung India, 2019
Background: Few studies have reported on the utility of ultrathin bronchoscopes (UTBs) for performing radial probe endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS). Herein, we describe our experience with UTB and conventional bronchoscope (CB) for performing radial EBUS.

Cone-beam computed tomography-guided endobronchial ultrasound using an ultrathin bronchoscope for diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions: a prospective pilot study. [PDF]

J Thorac Dis, 2023
Background: Multimodal transbronchial biopsy (TBB) may have improved diagnostic yield for peripheral pulmonary lesions suspected as lung cancer. Radial endobronchial ultrasound (R-EBUS) provides real-time imaging and confirmation of the location of the ...

Diagnostic yield and the number of tumor cells of ultrathin bronchoscopy for peripheral lung lesions: A comparison with thin bronchoscopy.

PLoS ONE, 2023
Ultrathin bronchoscopy has been reported to have a higher diagnostic yield than thin bronchoscopy for small peripheral lung lesions in transbronchial biopsy under radial endobronchial ultrasonography (EBUS).

Diagnosis of Synchronous Primary Lung Cancers Using EBUS-TBNA and BDBD-Assisted Transbronchial Biopsy During a Single Bronchoscopic Procedure: A Case Report. [PDF]

Respirol Case Rep
A 70‐year‐old man with mediastinal lymphadenopathy and a right upper lobe nodule underwent simultaneous bronchoscopic evaluation using EBUS‐TBNA and balloon dilation for bronchoscope delivery (BDBD). EBUS‐TBNA confirmed small cell lung cancer in the mediastinal nodes, whereas BDBD enabled additional peripheral advancement of the thin bronchoscope from ...
