Ultrasonography can be performed as an adjunct to aid in the localization of small nodules. We describe 25 patients with computed tomographic evidence of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs) who underwent bronchoscopy with endobronchial ultrasonography (EBUS) for localization. The results demonstrate that methylene blue injection with radial EBUS is a simple and easy location technique for PLLs in Sublobar resection.

“…[17] and Kurimoto et al . [7] Several groups have reported using EBUS without fluoroscopic support, with an average diagnostic yield of 64.1%,[318192021] whereas others have reported using EBUS with fluoroscopy guidance. [2] The combination of EBUS with virtual bronchoscopic navigation has been reported to be between 63.3% and 84.4%.…”

BACKGROUND:We report a meta-analysis of recent studies comparing the diagnostic yields of endobronchial ultrasonography plus fluoroscopically-guided transbronchial biopsy (EBUS + TBB) with that of conventional fluoroscopically-guided TBB for peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs).METHODS:We searched Medline, the Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Google Scholar through 31 March 2013 using the keywords: lung neoplasm, pulmonary lesions, diagnosis, endobronchial ultrasound, fluoroscopy, and fluoroscopic.RESULTS:Four studies were included in the study with a total of 461 patients, 222 in the EBUS + TBB group and 239 in the TBB only group. The meta-analysis revealed that the group with EBUS + TBB was more favored in terms of positive diagnostic yield than the group diagnosed with only conventional TBB (odds ratio [OR] = 2.211, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.422–3.438, P < 0.001). Subgroup analysis based on lesion size found that smaller PPLs had higher accuracy (OR = 4.502, 95% CI = 2.002–10.126, P < 0.001) than PPLs of large size (OR = 1.849, 95% CI = 1.033–3.311, P = 0.039).CONCLUSION:Obtaining TBB samples for histopathological diagnosis is enhanced by the addition of EBUS to conventional fluoroscopic guidance; this is, especially important for patients with small peripheral lung lesions who benefit greatly from early diagnosis.

“…27 On the other hand, real time elastography performed during endoscopic ultrasound, fluoroscopic guided radial endobron chial ultrasound, chest ultrasound, and linear en dobronchial ultrasound are more advanced proce dures that may prove promising in the future. [28][29][30][31] Different cells are involved in the secretion of inflammatory molecules. Tertiary lymphoid ag gregates created during inflammatory response to proteases and free radicals secreted by activat ed leukocytes may reflect lymphoid neogenesis, the first step of tumorigenesis, and could affect regulatory mechanisms, such as autophagy, apop tosis, angiogenesis, and cell repair.…”
