  • Title: Diagnostic value of bronchial washing in a case of primary pulmonary non-Hodgkin lymphoma.
    Author: Lorenzetti E, Nardi F.
    Journal: Appl Pathol; 1984; 2(5):277-81. PubMed ID: 6100670.
    Abstract:
    A case of primary pulmonary non-Hodgkin lymphoma is presented. Cytologic examination of the bronchial washing was the first diagnostic procedure able to identify malignant lymphoma cells. Bronchoscopic biopsy, on the contrary, suggested the presence of a small cell carcinoma. Cytodiagnosis was then confirmed by open lung biopsy. The advantages of bronchial washing in such a rare pulmonary lesion are discussed.
