Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Transbronchial Needle Aspiration Cytology: Navigating the Diagnostic Challenge between Tuberculosis and Sarcoidosis in Endemic Regions
While a diagnosis of tuberculosis can be made independently on cytological features, MDD with contributory cytological findings is essential for the diagnosis of sarcoidosis. EBUS-TBNA cytology, thus, plays an important role in the multidisciplinary strategy of approaching thoracic lesions.
