Abstract

Backgrounds: Endobronchial tuberculosis (EBTB) is a special form of respiratory tuberculosis that continues to be a health problem because bronchostenosis may develop as a serious complication despite efficacious antituberculosis chemotherapy. The EBTB has nonspesific signs and symptoms, therefor it may cause misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis. Persahabatan National Respiratory Referral Hospital doesn?t have data about successful treatment of EBTB Methods: This was a retrospective study of EBTB patients based from the medical record and confirm with bronchoscopy data from January 2013 to December 2017. Endobronchial tuberculosis diagnosed based from microbiology, histopathology examination or based on combination of clinical symptoms, radiology and bronchoscopy lesion appearance. Endobronchial tuberculosis treatment considered successful if there is improvement in clinical symptoms, microbiological conversion, accompanied by improvement or no change in the number of lesions or the radiological appearance. Results: The study sample consisted of 30 subjects. Majority of the subjects were female (86,7%), age

Abstract

Background: To improve patient’s quality of life, understanding destroyed lung (DL) is very important, however, it is very limited in information related to it as well as to the existency of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in destroyed lung. In this study, we investigated relationship between DL with PH status and the exercise capacity through 6 minutes walking test (6MWT). Method: Cross-sectional analytic study involving 54 DL subjects. Subjects performed echocardiography to exclude cardiac abnormality and to determine whether they had PH. Subjects were then divided into two groups based on their PH status. They underwent 6MWT and their walking distance and peripheral oxygen saturation were measured. Student t-test was used for analyzing data. Furthermore, we determined correlation between walking distance and mean Pulmonary Artery Pressure (mPAP) value also peripheral oxygen saturation and mPAP. Result: We calculated the mean of walking distance between the two groups. The mean from subjects with PH and without PH were 329.18 and 388.77 meter respectively (p=0.035). We found negative correlation between the mean of walking distance and subject’s mPAP using statistical analysis Pearson correlation test (r= -0,457, p = 0,001) while percentage of 6MWT by its prediction also had a negative correlation (r= -0,468, p=

Abstract

Background: Although COPD has been believed to be characterized by respiratory disease, there are currently limited study conducted to evaluate inflammation markers and exacerbation rate in COPD by noninvasive methods. We did a prospective cohort study to observe the alteration of Neutrophyl-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in COPD patients to find any possible correlation with COPD exacerbation status. Method: From July to December 2018, a prospective cohort study was performed with blood and spirometry test on 31 COPD patients during exacerbation (AE-COPD) and stable. The mean of NLR and CRP were compared and analyzed. Results: Both NLR and CRP decreased during stable condition (from 7.95±6.8 to 4.6±5.5 and 43.4±71 to 12.2±18.5) with P<0.01 respectively. We also found a significant inverse correlation between NLR and FEV1/FVC in AE-COPD and CRP showed an inverse correlation only with FEV1 in AE-COPD. Another interesting finding was a subject with very high CRP whose value remained above the nomal limit during stable, and died within 2 months after exacerbation. Conclusion: NLR and CRP levels in COPD patients increased during exacerbation, which may reflect lung function and exacerbation status.

Abstract

Benign central airway obstruction (BCAO) may occur in patients with post-intubation, tracheostomy, tuberculosis and non-tuberculosis infections, tracheal wall abnormalities, endobronchial benign tumors, vascular abnormalities, benign thyroid tumors and external mechanical compression. The management of BCAO is based on the underlying disease and requires multidisciplinary joint decisions from interventional pulmonology, thoracic surgery, radiology and anesthesia. Therapeutic bronchoscopy for the management of BCAO emergencies includes balloon dilation, stents and lasers.

Abstract

Background: Lung cancer continues to be a major cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Bronchoscopy serves as a key diagnostic tool, allowing histological sampling through transbronchial biopsy (TBB). The bronchus sign, identified on pre-biopsy CT scans, is associated with improved diagnostic yield in TBB. Method: A retrospective study was conducted between October and December 2023 at Persahabatan Hospital, Jakarta, analyzing 88 patients suspected of lung cancer. Data collected comprised patient demographics, lesion size as determined by CT scans, and the presence or absence of the bronchus sign. Fisher’s exact test was applied for statistical analysis, with a predetermined significance level of P<0.05. Results: Positive histology results were identified in 38 cases (55.07%) for lesions ≥3 cm and 9 cases (47.39%) for <3 cm(P=0.607). In lesions ≥3 cm, the positivity rate was similar between those with the presence (55.81%) and absence (53.85%) of a bronchus sign (P>0.99). In lesions <3 cm, positivity was higher with a bronchus sign (60%) than without (25%) (P=0.55). Conclusion: The bronchus sign appears to increase TBB positivity, especially in peripheral lesions <3 cm. Lesion size also appears to influence TBB yield. However, the findings were not statistically significant, likely due to small sample size and missing CT data.

Abstract

Dry pleuroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to evaluate and manage pleural conditions, particularly in cases of minimal pleural effusion (mini-PE) or dry pleural dissemination (DPD). This procedure involves the induction of artificial pneumothorax to create a workspace, allowing for direct access to the pleura without relying on a significant pleural effusion, unlike wet pleuroscopy. The key advantages of dry pleuroscopy include the elimination of the need for general anesthesia, mechanical ventilation, or specialized operating rooms, thereby reducing the risk of complications and associated costs. With a sensitivity of 94.4% and a specificity of 92.8%, dry pleuroscopy is highly effective for diagnosing lung cancer and pleural metastases in cases of minimal effusion. It also aids in lung cancer staging, minimizing the need for invasive procedures like lobectomy in complex cases. Artificial pneumothorax is a key step in dry pleuroscopy. It can be achieved through blunt dissection, optical trocars, or specialized tools such as the Boutin needle or Veress cannula. Ultrasound (USG) guidance further enhances procedural accuracy and safety by reducing complications. Dry pleuroscopy provides a safe, effective, and cost-efficient diagnostic and therapeutic solution, making it preferable to methods such as video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS), especially in patients unfit for invasive procedures.

Abstract

Background: Pleuroscopy is a valuable minimally invasive procedure for evaluating undiagnosed pleural effusion. Rapid diagnosis of malignancy is often needed to reduce procedure time and patient discomfort, particularly when pleurodesis is planned. Imprint cytology is a quick and simple method, though underutilized in pleuroscopy practice in Indonesia. This study aimed to compare the diagnostic yield of imprint cytology and histopathology in pleural effusion cases undergoing pleuroscopy. Methods: This retrospective observational study was conducted from August to November 2024 and included patients with pleural effusion who underwent diagnostic pleuroscopy. Pleural biopsies were taken using forceps. Imprint cytology was performed by directly smearing the biopsy tissue onto slides, followed by staining. Histopathology was done using standard tissue processing. Results: Of the 25 patients who underwent pleuroscopy, 14 met the inclusion criteria. Pleuroscopic findings varied, with the most common being mass lesions (35.7%), followed by multiple nodules (21.4%) and sago-nodules (14.3%). Histopathology revealed malignancy in 10 patients (71.4%) and non-malignant in 4 (28.6%). Imprint cytology detected malignancy in 12 patients (85.7%) and non-malignant findings in 2 patients (14.3%). Conclusion: Imprint cytology offers a rapid and reliable diagnostic method during pleuroscopy, particularly in resource-limited settings. It may facilitate early detection of malignancy and support timely clinical decision-making.

Abstract

Interventional pulmonology (IP) is a minimally invasive approach that plays a pivotal role in the evaluation and management of advanced thoracic diseases within palliative care. By integrating bronchoscopic and pleural techniques, IP provides effective symptom relief without the need for extensive surgical procedures or prolonged hospitalization. In malignant central airway obstruction, stenting, cryotherapy, and laser debulking offer rapid improvement in airflow and quality of life. For malignant pleural effusion, thoracentesis, pleurodesis, indwelling pleural catheters, and intrapleural fibrinolytic therapy for septated effusions provide safe and cost-effective strategies for symptom control. In selected cases of severe emphysema, bronchoscopic lung volume reduction using endobronchial valves improves lung mechanics and exercise capacity. In contrast, one-way endobronchial valves and spigots are valuable in managing persistent air leaks. With high procedural success rates and favorable safety profiles, IP is broadly applicable across diverse palliative respiratory conditions. Overall, IP provides a safe, effective, and patient-centered solution that complements standard palliative care, ensuring optimal quality of life while minimizing invasive burden.

Abstract

Bronchoscopy is a widely used diagnostic and therapeutic procedure in pulmonary medicine, with increasing utilization as technology advances. However, it is also associated with a risk of infection, which may negatively impact patient outcomes, particularly in individuals with underlying lung disease or immunocompromised conditions. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has reported that endoscopic procedures, including bronchoscopy, are among the most frequently implicated medical devices in healthcare-associated outbreaks. Post-bronchoscopy infections, although relatively uncommon (0.2–5.2%), may lead to serious complications such as pneumonia, lung abscess, and empyema. These infections can originate from endogenous respiratory flora or from exogenous contamination related to inadequate bronchoscope reprocessing. This narrative review aims to summarize current evidence on infection risks, sources of transmission, and preventive strategies in the bronchoscopy setting, including occupational risks to healthcare workers. Strengthening infection control practices is essential to improve patient safety and reduce the risk of transmission in bronchoscopy units.
