Summary

There is an interest in characterazing asymptomatic peripheral lung lesions beacause they could be an early form of neoplasm.

These lesions are invisible in the endoscopic exam, so the samples must be made with a guiding technique.

The trans bronchial biopsy after tracking by radial echo-endoscopic miniprobes can be used to collect tissue sample.

When no diagnosis is made with this technique, the attitude can be discussed between different option: follow up versus an other sampling technique (transthoracic ponction, surgery,...).

In this study the investigators will study the interest of a sampling guided by fluoroscopy after a negative sampling guided by radial echo-endoscopic miniprobe.

People presenting with a peripheral lung lesion, invisible with a classical endoscopy, will be included after they sign an informed consent. The bronchoscopy will be executed after a local anesthesia and if there are no visible endobronchial lesions, the radial EBUS mini-probe will be used.

If these samples give an anatomopathologic diagnosis consistent with the clinical context, no other exam will be proposed.

If there isn't a diagnosis after this first exam, a second exam will be proposed to the participants including an histologic smear, a trans bronchial biopsy and a fine needle aspiration under fluoroscopic guidance.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

trans bronchial biopsy guided by echo-endoscopic miniprobes

We get a sample trough transbronchial biopsy guided by echo-endoscopic miniprobe.

PROCEDURE

if first one negative: samples under fluoroscopic control

If no diagnosis with first intervention we get a second sample by cytological smear, fine needle biopsy and transbronchial biopsy under fluoroscopic control
