Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is becoming a standard method for invasive mediastinal staging and for the diagnosis of paratracheal and peribronchial lesions. It is essential to understand the technical aspects of EBUS-TBNA to ensure safe and efficient procedures. In this review, we discuss the practical aspects to be considered during EBUS-TBNA, including anesthesia, manipulation of equipment, understanding mediastinal ultrasound images, target selection, number of aspirations needed per target, sample handling, and complications.
支气管内超声引导下经支气管针吸活检术(EBUS-TBNA)正成为侵袭性纵隔分期及气管旁和支气管周围病变诊断的标准方法。了解EBUS-TBNA的技术要点对于确保操作安全、高效至关重要。在本综述中,我们讨论了EBUS-TBNA过程中需要考虑的实际问题,包括麻醉、设备操作、纵隔超声图像解读、靶点选择、每个靶点所需的穿刺次数、样本处理及并发症。
