Article Synopsis
- The study assessed the effectiveness and safety of radial probe endobronchial ultrasound-assisted transbronchial needle aspiration (REBUS-TBNA) specifically for sampling peripheral lung lesions near segmental bronchi.
- It was conducted retrospectively from January 2019 to December 2022, analyzing patient demographics, lesion characteristics, and diagnostic outcomes, comparing it to a control group using convex probe techniques.
- The results showed an 84% diagnostic yield for REBUS-TBNA with no reported adverse events, with higher yields associated with a greater number of needle punctures rather than lesion size or bronchial narrowing.
