New Publication Highlights CHF as a Key Predictor of Reactive Mediastinal and Hilar Lymphadenopathy
Congratulations to Drs. Alaa Abu Sayf, Michael Reaume, Vincent Lipari, Bruno DiGiovine, Michael Simoff, and Javier Diaz-Mendoza on the publication of their study examining isolated mediastinal and hilar lymphadenopathy in patients undergoing EBUS-TBNA.
The study found a strong association between congestive heart failure and reactive lymphadenopathy, with CHF emerging as the only independent predictor of a reactive diagnosis. These findings may help clinicians better weigh the risks and benefits of invasive tissue sampling when isolated adenopathy is seen in patients with CHF.
Highly Anticipated Case Report Now in the Pipeline
