Sponsor: China-Japan Friendship Hospital
Conditions: Sarcoidosis, Pulmonary
Interventions: EBUS-TBNA-based sampling methods, EBUS-TBMC based sampling method
Countries: China
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.
