What is Transbronchial Lung Cryobiopsy for Diffuse Parenchymal Lung Disease about?
Transbronchial lung cryobiopsy (TBLC) offers a minimally invasive option for the diagnosis of diffuse parenchymal lung diseases, of which interstitial lung diseases comprise the most common diagnoses. It has a high diagnostic yield with prognostic and therapeutic implications. TBLC has a favorable safety profile compared with surgical lung biopsy, but associated complications include pneumothorax and bleeding. However, TBLC techniques remain variable. Here we review the latest techniques described to maximize diagnostic yield and mitigate complications of TBLC as well as how this modality has been incorporated into guidelines.
