Summary

The investigators plan to evaluate the effect of the number of needle revolutions inside the node on the diagnostic yield of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) in patients with sarcoidosis.

Conditions

  • Sarcoidosis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

10 revolutions

The 22G needle (Vizishot, Olympus) will be used to obtain specimens from the enlarged lymph nodes during EBUS. Once inside the lymph node, needle will be passed to and fro 10 times
