Lung biopsy is a relatively frequently performed procedure with considerable benefit for patient management but it may, on rare occasions, result in the death of the patient. It is a multidisciplinary procedure involving respiratory physicians, surgeons, and radiologists with an interest in chest diseases.Keywords
