Bronchoscopy in Patients With Known or Suspected COVID-19: Results From the Global Pandemic SARS-CoV-2 Bronchoscopy Database (GPS-BD)
Conclusion:
Results from this international database provide a widely generalizable characterization of the benefits and risks of bronchoscopy in patients with known or suspected COVID-19. Bronchoscopy in this setting has reasonable clinical benefit, with diagnosis and/or management change resulting from about half of the diagnostic cases. However, it is not without risk, especially in patients with limited physiological reserve. (Source: Journal of Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology)

Comparison of the GenCut Core Biopsy System to Transbronchial Biopsy Forceps for Flexible Bronchoscopic Lung Biopsy
Background:
Pulmonary nodules are increasingly detected on screening and routine chest imaging, leading to an increase in diagnostic procedures. Bronchoscopy with transbronchial biopsy (TBBx) is the most common diagnostic modality, with diagnostic yield between 43% and 86%, largely dependent on the use of navigational modalities. In 2015 a new biopsy tool by Medtronic, the GenCut core biopsy system [GenCut transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA)], was developed with the intention of improving yield in lung nodule biopsies. Our goal was to determine the efficacy of this new device when used in addition to TBBx.

Randomized Cross-over Trial of Endobronchial Ultrasound Transbronchial Needle Aspiration With or Without Suction in Suspected Malignant Lymphadenopathy
Rationale:
The benefit from applying suction during endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is unclear.
Background:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of applying suction during EBUS-TBNA of lymph nodes (LN) on the diagnostic yield and specimen quality of EBUS-TBNA smears and cellblocks.
Methods:
We conducted a randomized blinded cross-over trial comparing the diagnostic yield and quality of EBUS-TBNA samples obtained with suction (S+) and without suction (S−) from suspected malignant mediastinal LN. Each LN was aspirated 4 times in a randomly assig...

Percutaneous Tracheostomy in Respiratory Failure Due to COVID-19
Conclusion:
Percutaneous tracheostomy in prolonged respiratory failure due to COVID-19 appears to be safe to perform at the bedside for both the patient and health care providers in the appropriate clinical context. Morbid obesity did not limit the ability to perform percutaneous tracheostomy in COVID-19 patients. (Source: Journal of Bronchology and Interventional Pulmonology)

Utilization of High-pressure Suction for EBUS-TBNA Sampling in Suspected Lung Cancer
Conclusion:
HPS appears to be simple, no-cost, and safe, promising higher sample volume compared with vacuum syringe suction, and also appears to be associated with higher success of full molecular testing with less additional procedures, in non−small cell lung cancer necrotic targets.

Flexible Bronchoscopy Diagnosis of Uncommon Congenital H-type Tracheoesophageal Fistula, Dual Fistulae, Bronchoesophageal Fistula, and Recurrence of Fistula in Children: A 20-year Experience
Conclusions:
Flexible bronchoscopy should be considered as a first line investigation in uncommon aerodigestive fistulae. In the absence of a skilled bronchoscopist, the best radiologic investigation is a pull-back tube esophagogram but may still require endoscopic confirmation at the time of fistula repair.

Therapeutic Rigid Bronchoscopy Intervention for Malignant Central Airway Obstruction Improves Performance Status to Allow Systemic Treatment
Background:
Malignant central airway obstruction may result in an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) that precludes treatment with systemic therapies. We sought to evaluate outcomes of patients undergoing rigid bronchoscopy for malignant central airways obstruction (MCAO) and its effect on access to systemic therapies including immunotherapy.
Patients and Methods:
We conducted a retrospective observational single-center study evaluating 77 consecutive patients who underwent rigid bronchoscopy from March 2015 to November 2019. Procedural details, preprocedural and postprocedural ECOG ...
