Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The diagnostic yield of EBUS TBNA with 21G and 22G needle in patients with a final diagnosis of sarcoidosis will be assessed for any difference between the two
outcome assessed 6 months following enrollment of the last patient
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Adequacy of samples
0, 7, 180 days of inclusion
Complications
0, 7 , 180 days of inclusion
Study Arms (2)
21G needle group
ACTIVE COMPARATOR21 gauge endobronchial ultrasound guided transbronchial aspiration needle ( Vizishot, Olympus ) would be used to perform endobronchial ultrasound guided Transbronchial needle aspiration
22G needle group
ACTIVE COMPARATOR22 gauge endobronchial ultrasound guided transbronchial aspiration needle ( Vizishot, Olympus ) would be used to perform endobronchial ultrasound guided Transbronchial needle aspiration
Interventions
Patients with a clinico radiologic suspicion of sarcoidosis will undergo endobronchial ultrasound guided transbronchial needle aspiration with 21 G needle, by random assignment
Patients with a clinico radiologic suspicion of sarcoidosis will undergo endobronchial ultrasound guided transbronchial needle aspiration with 22 G needle, by random assignment
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age ≥18 years
- Clinicoradiological suspicion of sarcoidosis where endobronchial ultrasound guided transbronchial needle aspiration is contemplated
- Enlarged hilar and mediastinal lymph nodes \>10 mm (any axis) on computed tomography of the chest
You may not qualify if:
- Hypoxemia (SpO2 \<92%) on inspired fraction of oxygen 0.3
- Treatment with systemic glucocorticoids for more than 2 weeks in the preceding three months
- Diagnosis of sarcoidosis possible with another minimally invasive technique such as skin biopsy or peripheral lymph node biopsy
- Failure to provide informed consent
