Linear endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) allows samples of lesions close to the airways to be obtained, as it enables aspiration to be performed under visual control in real time, opening new possibilities for minimally invasive examination of the mediastinum. While there are many publications on its usefulness in the study of mediastinal or hilar lymphadenopathies, there are few that analyse the role of EBUS-guided transbronchial needle aspiration for the diagnosis of other lesions adjacent to the airways or digestive tract. We describe the characteristics and results obtained in a series of 26 cases of non-nodal lesions of different aetiologies studied by EBUS- guided transbronchial needle aspiration through the airways or oesophagus, demonstrating the usefulness and safety of this technique in the diagnosis of these types of lesions.
线性支气管内超声（EBUS）可使气道附近的病变样本得以获取，因为它可以在实时的可视控制下进行抽吸，为纵隔的微创检查开辟了新的可能性。虽然有很多关于其在纵隔或肺门淋巴结疾病研究中的有用性的出版物，但很少有分析 EBUS 引导下经支气管针吸活检在诊断气道或消化道相邻其他病变中的作用的出版物。我们描述了通过气道或食管进行 EBUS 引导下经支气管针吸活检研究的 26 例不同病因的非淋巴结病变的特征和结果，证明了该技术在这些类型病变的诊断中的有用性和安全性。
