Abstrakt: Differential diagnosis of pulmonary infiltrates is difficult due to the absence of specific clinical and radiological manifestations. Differential diagnosis of pulmonary infiltrates usually includes the following «triad»: pneumonia, tuberculosis, lung cancer. Diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis is based on microbiological examination of sputum and bronchoscopic respiratory samples - bronchial washing and bronchoalveolar lavage. Efficiency of molecular genetic methods (including express tests) in detecting M. tuberculosis DNA can reach 91-98%. Therefore, treatment may be started without data of microbiological examination. Nevertheless, there are rare cases of false-positive results of PCR in patients with non-tuberculous lung lesions. This aspect often results false diagnosis and delayed verification of true cause of lung lesion. Another adverse effect is associated with anti-tuberculosis therapy. Endoscopic transbronchial lung biopsy and its modern version (transbronchial cryobiopsy) as a minimally invasive diagnostic procedure are performed in such patients. These methods require a sufficiently high experience and qualification of specialist and following such aspects as navigation techniques and balloon bronchial blocking. We present this clinical case as a demonstration of modern possibilities of multimodal navigational bronchoscopic diagnosis with transbronchial cryobiopsy for local pulmonary infiltrate.
