Transrectal ultrasound-guided endoscopic drainage and vacuum therapy of pelvic abscesses: an alternative to (computed tomography-guided) percutaneous drainage.
A 43-year-old, otherwise healthy man had increasing abdominal pain in the lower abdomen without a fever. His leukocyte count was 20.0×109/L (normal range: 4– 9×109/L) and the C-reactive protein level was 155.5mg/L (normal <5mg/L). Abdominal computed tomography (CT) confirmed the suspected diagnosis of diverticulitis and revealed a large pelvic abscess (●" Fig.1). The intended CT-guided drainage...
متن کاملPreoperative Computed Tomography –guided Hook-wire Localisation of Pulmonary Nodules
Percutaneous preoperative localisation of breast tumours using a hook-wire needle is a standard radiological practice. The use of a hook-wire in preoperative localisation of pulmonary nodules under computed tomography guidance has also been described in overseas publications. We describe herein our local experience with the use of a hook-wire needle that is primarily used in breast tumours in p...

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 کاملPreoperative computed tomography-guided hook-wire positioning of pulmonary nodules.
This study aimed to analyze the clinical application value of computed tomography (CT)-guided hook-wire positioning before thoracoscopic surgery. Eighty-four patients who had received a thoracoscopic wedge resection of pulmonary nodules between January and December 2013 were selected. Group A consisted of 38 cases where the hook-wire positioning technique was not used, and the positioning appro...
متن کاملLung Lesions Biopsy in Children by Computed Tomography (CT) Fluoroscopy Guided Versus Conventional CT Scan Guided
Abstract Background Computed tomography (CT)-guided biopsy of the lung is a well-established method of diagnosis. The aim of this study was to determine the success rate of fluoroscopic CT (FCT) and conventional CT (CCT) in needle navigation biopsies from the lung lesions. Materials and Methods A total of 78 patients were prospectively enrolled to receive CT-guided biopsy with (group I, n=2...
