[Biopsies in pneumology].
The techniques of different bioptic and cytological examinations performed in pneumology are presented. The various indications for these biopsies in pulmonary, pleural and mediastinal pathology are considered. Interpretation of results leads to a precise diagnosis and to diagnostic information on lesions otherwise difficult to define. In some cases conclusions cannot be reached because of the insignificant changes observed on too small samples.
