ABSTRACT
Introduction:
We have been using cryo-biopsy for endobronchial lesions for lung cancer diagnosis and debulking. Cryo-biopsy is also known to be an excellent tool for diagnosis of lung interstitial disease. Recently cryo-biopsy with the 1.1mm probe was used for lymphnode biopsy. Patients andMethods:
311 patients participated with lymphadenopathy and at least one lung lesion. The following tools were used for diagnosis; 22G Mediglobe Sonotip, 22G Medigolbe, 21G Olympus, 19G Olympus and 1.1mm cryo probe ERBE CRYO 2 system (3 seconds froze). A PENTAX Convex-probe EBUS was used for biopsy guidance.Results:
Cell-blocks slices had a higher number in the 19G needle group (19G> Cryo Probe>22G Mediglobe Sonotip >21G Olympus >22G Mediglobe).Conclusion:
Cryo biopsy of the lymphnodes is safe with the 1.1mm cryo probe. Further studies are needed in order to evaluate new probes and the technique specifications.
