Here we present a comprehensive review of the literature concerning the utility of convex probe endobronchial ultrasound (CP-EBUS) in the diagnosis and treatment of nonmalignant conditions and discuss the associated complications. CP-EBUS has been conventionally used for the staging of lung cancer and sampling of mediastinal and hilar nodes. However, its application is not limited to malignant conditions, and it is gaining acceptance as a diagnostic modality of choice for nonmalignant conditions such as tuberculosis, sarcoidosis, pulmonary embolism, thyroid lesions, and cysts. Moreover, its therapeutic value allows for extended applications such as mediastinal and thyroid cyst drainage, fiducial marker placement for radiation therapy, and transbronchial needle injection. The noninvasiveness, low complication rate, high diagnostic yield, and satisfactory sensitivity and specificity values are the main attributes that lend credence to the use of CP-EBUS as a standalone primary diagnostic and therapeutic tool in pulmonary medicine in the foreseeable future.

“…There are a few data concerning treatment using the EBUS-TBNA approach. Table 5 summarizes case reports of successful EBUS-TBNA treatment [36,[46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53]. These reports suggest that EBUS-TBNA could be a safe alternative treatment compared to more aggressive strategies.…”

The numerous causes underlying mediastinal lesions require different diagnostic and therapeutic approaches, including conservative, minimally invasive, and surgical interventions. Solid lesions of a malignant nature, mostly located in the anterior mediastinum, are properly treated with surgical resection either with or without adjuvant schemes. In contrast, a surveillance program is usually recommended with solid benign tumors, depending on their size and related symptomatology. In the management of mediastinal collections, when a drainage intervention is required (suspicion of infection and symptomatology), a minimally invasive nonsurgical procedure or thoracic surgery is considered. The minimally invasive nonsurgical procedures that can be available are percutaneous radiology-guided imaging (abdominal ultrasound (US) or computed tomography (CT) scan), complete single-aspiration guided by endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) or endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS), and transmural drainage guided by EUS. Surgical debridement is feasible to treat collections, but as this entails considerable risk of postoperative complications, it is chosen only when other minimally invasive therapies are not possible. The published literature related to the interventional endoscopic approach to mediastinal lesions is scarce. Nevertheless, reports in this field reveal that interventional EUS may have a role in both the diagnosis of and therapeutic approach to mediastinal lesions, mainly in the management of mediastinal collections.

“…No obstante, en los últimos años, se han descrito casos donde la PATB-USEB se ha convertido en una buena alternativa para el diagnóstico citohistológico mínimamente invasivo para aquellas lesiones no accesibles o en pacientes con un elevado riesgo quirúrgico. Los resultados son prometedores e incluso en un futuro la PATB-USEB podría llegar a ser la técnica diagnóstica de elección [11][12][13][14] Las imágenes A y B se corresponden con cortes axiales del estudio PET/TC 18 F-FDG: A) Las imágenes muestran un depósito patológico de FDG de aspecto hetereogéneo, que se proyecta sobre el nódulo tiroideo derecho objetivado en la tomografía computarizada. B) Lesión sólida con elevada captación de FDG en hilio izquierdo con signos de transcisuralidad.…”
