Key Words Peripheral pulmonary nodule; Flexible bronchoscopy; Transbronchial biopsy; Lung transplant
Core Tip Transbronchial biopsy (TBBx) is routinely performed in lung transplant recipients (LTR). The development of pulmonary nodules (PNs) in this population is common. We investigated LTR who developed PNs post TBBx to determine the temporal relationship between the procedure and the timing of appearance and disappearance of these nodules. Our conclusion is that TBBx in LTR is associated with development of transient nodules at the site of TBBx in 13% of procedures. We hypothesize that these nodules are related to local hematoma and impaired lymphatic drainage. Close observation is a reasonable management approach.
