Endobronchial Ultrasound–guided Transvascular Needle Aspiration

Abstract: From our single-center experience, we conclude that in experienced hands, EBUS-TVNA is feasible, with a high yield, but without complications. Larger prospective trials are warranted to explore its diagnostic potential.

“…Lesions or lymph nodes at these stations require surgical sampling. In selected situations, EBUS guided trans pulmonary (trans‐PA) needle aspiration has been described to sample station 5 lesions . Another sampling situation is lesions seen in the lumen of the PA, which may not be pulmonary emboli, and need tissue diagnosis.…”

“…Similarly, a prior retrospective case series of EBUS-TVNA was published in the October 2015 issue of JOBIP. In this single-center study by Panchabhai et al, 3 10 patients with apparent contraindications to surgical sampling underwent TVNA of 9 left-sided and 1 right-sided lesion. One patient required a VATS biopsy to confirm the diagnosis, and 1 patient was diagnosed with histoplasmosis on the basis of serology.…”

“…TVNA by endobronchial and esophageal approaches has been reported in the literature since the late 2000s. [2][3][4] The technique allows sampling of lesions with intervening vessels between the needle entry point and the nodule, mass, or lymph node. It is clear at this point that it is feasible.…”
