| Abstract: | BackgroundThe first description of performing a new diagnostic procedure, cryobiopsy, in lung transplant recipients in Poland.MethodsThree cases of patients after lung transplantation were analyzed in context of the procedure of cryobiopsy, which was performed in a hybrid room with a bronchoscopic video track and C-arm radiograph. Patients were subjected to complete anesthesia and intubated. Two or three sections with an average diameter of 5 mm were collected.ResultsThe sections were large and fully diagnostic. In all 3 described cases they brought a decisive element into diagnosis.ConclusionsCryobiopsy is a useful tool in the differential diagnosis of lesions and complications that occur after lung transplantation. |
