Endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) has typically been performed using the 22 gauge (G) dedicated TBNA needle. Recently a new 21G TBNA needle has been introduced. The efficacy of using a larger gauge biopsy needle during EBUS-TBNA has not been reported. The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic yield and utility of 21G and 22G needles during EBUS-TBNA.
