This expert guide to obtaining, handling, and interpreting lung biopsy specimens methodically covers both neoplastic and nonneoplastic lesions. Initial chapters review state-of-the-art biopsy procedures for lesions involving bronchi as well as lesions located in the periphery of the lung. Systematically described and demonstrated are transbronchial scraping or brushing, transbronchial needle aspiration, percutaneous needle biopsy, mediastinoscopy, and open lung biopsy. The histology, cytology, grading, and staging of a variety of specific lesions are then clearly delineated in both text and illustrations. The lung pathology reviewed includes primary and metastatic tumours; infections; drug reactions; acute and chronic infiltrative lung disease; diffuse pulmonary haemorrhage; collagen vascular disease; granulomatosis; bronchiolitis induced by environmental irritants; and conditions seen in immunocompromised hosts.
Part 1 Infiltrative lung disease: general approach to lung biopsy; acute infiltrative lung disease in the immunocompromised host; infections and acute infiltrative lung disease in the nonimmunocompromised host; chronic infiltrative lung disease; collagen vascular disease; tumors presenting as infiltrative lung disease; noninfectious angiitis and granulomatosis; diffuse pulmonary hemorrhage; pulmonary vascular disease; pneumoconiosis; diseases of the conducting airways. Part 2 Lung tumors: tumor biopsy interpretation; methods for obtaining tissue and cells from tumors and tumorlike lesions - anatomic considerations; interpretation of biopsy specimens; interpretation and evaluation of specimens obtained by scraping (or brushing) an aspiration cytology; histologic changes induced by nonsurgical treatment; application of special techniques; benign epithelial lesions; malignant epithelial tumors; rare malignant tumors; soft tissue tumors; benign tumors of uncertain nature and tumorlike lesions; mesothelioma; benign and malignant tumors of neighbouring organs; metastatic tumors.
