INTRODUCTION: Transbronchial needle aspiration (TBNA) is a modality that allows the bronchoscopist to sample tissue from the deeper submucosa as well as from the close extra luminal areas of the endobronchial tree. The aim of this study is to report our experience in diagnostic utility of TBNA and its contributions to biopsy in visible endobronchial lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: It is a prospective study taken up by the department of pulmonary medicine of SVS medical college and hospital, Mahabubnagar, Telangana. The study duration was from December 2015 to December 2016. RESULTS: TBNA was exclusively diagnostic in 4 (30.7%) patients where 2 patients had peribronchial and 2 patients had intrabronchial lesion. TBNA was diagnostic in 100% cases. Biopsy was inconclusive in 2 cases and in 1 case biopsy could not be done due to excessive bleeding. CONCLUSION: TBNA is a safe and complimentary tool for biopsy in the diagnosis of endobronchial lesions.
