Effectiveness of Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Biopsy Combined With Tissue Culture for the Diagnosis of Sputum Smear-Negative Pulmonary Tuberculosis.
Frontiers in microbiology(2022)
Abstract
Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial biopsy is safe and effective for use in diagnosing sputum smear-negative pulmonary TB. EBUS echoic feature is also a predictor of the positive TB culture rate in pulmonary TB. However, tissue culture EBUS-TBB has little effect in improving the positive TB culture rate.
