Intimal Sarcoma of the Lower Pulmonary Vein Diagnosed by Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Fine-Needle Aspiration (EBUS-FNA): A Case Report and Comprehensive Literature Review

Intimal sarcoma of blood vessels is a rare, aggressive tumor originating from vascular endothelial cells. This report presents a 22-year-old male diagnosed with an intimal sarcoma of the lower pulmonary vein, detailing diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis information. Additionally, this report explores the application application of Endobronchial Ultrasound-Guided Fine-Needle Aspiration (EBUS-FNA) alongside with Rapid Remote Online Evaluation (ROLE) for identifying a mass-like lesion in the pulmonary vein. We emphasize the value of this technique for supporting ancillary studies like immunohistochemistry. The importance of accurate diagnostic methods and personalized treatment management to improve prognosis in rare cancers is highlighted by this thorough analysis.
