“…In our daily practice, VWI measurement with CDUS could always be performed within 10 minutes. The sensitivity and the negative predictive value of VWI for cancer diagnosis are comparable to the result of a recent study about the diagnostic yield of transthoracic US‐guided biopsy (sensitivity 90% vs 93.6%; negative predictive value 88% vs 86%) 21…”

“…Ortaya çıkabilecek komplikasyonlar açısından değerlendirildiğinde, her iki teknikte de en sık gözlenebilecek komplikasyon pnömotorakstır [16], bunun yanında hastalarda hemotoraks, hemoptizi ve kanama gibi komplikasyonlar da görülebilir [16]. Literatür, her iki prosedür için komplikasyon ihtimali açısından incelendiğinde, tru-cut biyopsi yapılanlarda ince iğne biyopsisi yapılanlara kıyasla, pnömotoraksa daha çok rastlanmaktadır [4,14].…”

Kriptojenik organize pnömoni (KOP) ilk kez 1983 yılında Davison ve ark. tarafından tanımlanmasından önce yakın geçmişe kadar bronşiolitis obliterans organize pnömoni (BOOP) ismiyle literatürde kullanılmıştır. Etyolojisinde viral enfeksiyon, aspirasyon pnömonisi, toksik gaz inhalasyonu, transfüzyon ve radyoterapi yer almaktadır, ancak idiopatik olarak da geliştiği bilinmektedir. Hastalar klinik olarak üst solunum yolu enfeksiyonuna veya pnömoniye benzer bir tabloyla başvurabilir, ancak akciğer görüntülemesinde yaygın yama tarzında plevraya oturan konsolide sahaların yer değiştirmesi daha spesifiktir. Tedavisinde kortikosteroidler birinci basamak tedavidir ve genelde bu tedaviye iyi yanıt alınmaktadır, ancak bazen yeterli olmaz ve diğer immunosuppressif ilaçlara ihtiyaç olur, bunun yanında steroid dozu azaltıldığında relapslar görülebilir. Transbronşiyal biyopsi ile tanı konulabilmesi olasılığı düşüktür. Günümüzde kesin KOP tanısını koyabilmede en ideal yöntem görüntüleme eşliğinde yapılan tru-cut biyopsidir. Biz bu yazımızda, kesin tanı koymak için tru-cut akciğer biyopsisi uyguladığımız iki hastamızı literatür eşliğinde tartıştık.

“…44 US-guided biopsy of pleural lesions > 20 mm with a 14 gauge cutting needle gave 85.5% yield for malignancy and 100% for malignant mesothelioma with a 4% pneumothorax rate. 45 The type of needle appeared important; the Tru-Cut needle was better than modified Menghini's needle for malignancy (95.4 vs. 85.8%) 46 while the Abram's needle was recommended for tuberculous (TB) effusions. 47 Abnormal pleural findings can sometimes be missed on contrast-enhanced CT.…”

Thoracoscopy is an increasingly common procedure that provides significant clinical information and therapeutic applications. The procedure allows the physician to biopsy the parietal pleura under direct visualization with high accuracy. In addition, one can drain pleural fluid, place a chest tube in a precise location, and perform poudrage pleurodesis. Medical thoracoscopy (MT) is carried out in the operating room or procedure suite under moderate sedation with spontaneous ventilation. In comparison, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is performed under general anesthesia with single lung ventilation and through multiple ports in the operating room. MT is less invasive, has a comparable diagnostic yield, and may be better tolerated in high-risk patients. The indications, complications, and advances in thoracoscopy will be discussed in this article. In the era of rapidly evolving therapeutics for lung cancer, immune-modulation and ever-increasing risks of immunosuppression, MT will evolve and continue to play a pivotal role in the evaluation and research of pleuropulmonary diseases.
