Safety and Diagnostic Yield of Cryobiopsy Versus Forceps Biopsy in Endobronchial Lesions:Assiut University Experience

NCT04227743 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 300

Last updated 2020-04-24

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the diagnostic yield and show the feasibility and safety of endobronchial biopsies using the flexible cryoprob and to assess the sensitivity of cryobiopsy compared with forceps biopsy

Conditions

  • Endobronchial Lesions

Interventions

DEVICE

cryobiopsy

. The cryobiopsy samples will be obtained by advancement of the cryoprobe into the working channel of the bronchoscope to touch the tip of the endobronchial tumor. The freezing time will be approximately 4 seconds. Then, flexible bronchoscope together with tissue sample attached to the tip of the frozen probe will be extracted outside the bronchial tree. The tissue sample will be released from the probe's tip by plunging it into saline at room temperature. FB will be reintroduced after cryobiopsy to evaluate and control the bleeding.
