In this prospective study, we evaluated the diagnostic yield and safety of two endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) biopsy techniques – mediastinal cryobiopsy (EBUS-MCB) Franseen tip needle (EBUS-ANB) in patients with undiagnosed lymphadenopathy. The study included 30 who underwent both EBUS-MCB EBUS-ANB, four biopsies taken from each patient using methods. results demonstrated that provided a higher (96.4%) compared to EBUS-ANB (73.3%). Specimens showed fewer artifacts density granulomas were adequate for ancillary studies all cases. most common complication observed was minor bleeding, which more (36.6% versus 13.3%, p=0.04). This demonstrates EBUS-guided has when have an acceptable profile. Larger comparing these are necessary confirm findings current study.
