Diagnostic Value of EBUS-Guided Transbronchial Mediastinal Cryobiopsy Versus Conventional Bronchoscopic Approaches for Stage I/II Sarcoidosis

Conditions: Sarcoidosis, Pulmonary

Sex: All
Ages: 18 Years – N/A
Healthy volunteers: No
Phase: NA
Enrollment: 469
Sponsor: China-Japan Friendship Hospital

Location: China-Japan Friendship Hospital Beijing

Summary

Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA), combined with endobronchial biopsy (EBB) and/or transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB), and endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial mediastinal cryobiopsy (EBUS-TBMC) have high diagnostic yields for patients with sarcoidosis. However, a direct comparison between them has not been conducted. This randomized controlled trial aims to compare directly the diagnostic yield between EBUS-TBMC and EBUS-TBNA+EBB+TBLB in sarcoidosis.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age ≥18years; 2. Patients with clinical and radiological suspicion of stage I or stage II sarcoidosis; 3. Fully informed of the purpose and method of the study Exclusion Criteria: 1. Pathologically confirmed sarcoidosis, obvious organ involvement with the possibility of confirming granulomas using a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure; 2. Patients with medical contraindications to bronchoscopy procedures.
