    Area of Science:

    • Pulmonology and Occupational Medicine

    Context:

    • Exogenic pneumopathology arises from unknown consequences of industrial noxious agent exposure in workers.
    • Advanced diagnostic methods are crucial for understanding and managing these occupational lung conditions.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of perbronchial lung biopsy in diagnosing exogenic pneumopathology.
    • To highlight the diagnostic yield and complication rates of this interventional procedure.

    Summary:

    • Perbronchial lung biopsy successfully obtained lung tissue in approximately 90% of cases.
    • Diagnostic results were relevant in about 60% of examinations.
    • Low complication rates were observed, including pneumothorax (4%) and controllable bleeding (1.2%).

    Impact:

    • Perbronchial lung biopsy provides a valuable tool for diagnosing occupational diseases and lung fibrosis.
    • The procedure offers a new avenue for solving diagnostic challenges in exogenic pneumopathology.
    • Findings support the utility of this method in clinical practice for evaluating work-related lung conditions.
