Ultrathin Bronchoscopy for Solitary Pulmonary Nodules

NCT02490059 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 40

Last updated 2015-07-03

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The evaluation of solitary pulmonary nodules (SPN) requires a balance between procedure-related morbidity and diagnostic yield, particularly in areas where tuberculosis is endemic. Data on ultrathin bronchoscopy (UB) for this purpose is limited. In this prospective randomised trial we compared diagnostic yield and adverse events of UB with standard-size bronchoscopy (SB) in a cohort of patients with SPN located beyond the visible range of SB.
