Computed tomography-guided cutting needle pleural biopsy: Accuracy and complications
In cases of pleural lesion, tissue samples can be obtained through thoracoscopy or closed needle biopsy for histopathological analysis. Cutting needle biopsy is a relatively recent addition to these techniques. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and safety of computed tomography-guided cutting needle pleural biopsy (CT-CNPB), as well as the associated complications, i...

PURPOSE To report the experience of a radiology department in the use of computed tomography - guided cutting needle biopsy of pulmonary nodules, by evaluating diagnostic yield and incidence of complications. METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of 52 consecutive patients who underwent lung lesion biopsy guided by computed tomography, performed between May 1997 and May 2000. Thirty-five p...
متن کاملPercutaneous computed tomography-guided oesophageal needle biopsy.
Sir, Biopsies of suspicious lesions in the oesophagus can be readily performed via a flexible endoscope in most settings. However, structuring lesions may require a rigid endoscope under general anaesthesia or a percutaneous approach to successfully biopsy. The percutaneous approach however, is rarely used with upper gastrointestinal tract lesions. We describe the fine needle aspiration (FNA) o...
متن کاملCombined ultrasound-guided cutting-needle biopsy and standard pleural biopsy for diagnosis of malignant pleural effusions
BACKGROUND The most efficient approach to diagnose malignant pleural effusions (MPEs) is still controversial and uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of a combined approach using ultrasound (US)-guided cutting-needle biopsy (CNB) and standard pleural biopsy (SPB) for diagnosing MPE. METHODS Pleural effusions were collected from 172 patients for biochemical and microbiological a...
متن کاملIncidence of Pleural Recurrence after Computed Tomography-Guided Needle Biopsy in Stage I Lung Cancer
OBJECTIVE A risk of tumor seeding after percutaneous needle biopsy has been reported in various organs, including the lung. This study retrospectively evaluated the proportion of ipsilateral pleural recurrence after computed tomography-guided needle biopsy (CTNB) in p-stage I lung cancer patients. METHODS Of the 321 patients diagnosed with p-stage I lung cancer, 124 underwent CTNB before surg...
