Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the technique, suitability, and complications in CT-guided transthoracic biopsy of lung masses.MethodsThis study was approved by the institutional research ethics review committee. A total of 94 CT-guided percutaneous transthoracic biopsies performed on 85 patients were included in the study. The biopsy procedure was repeated in nine patients due to clinical requirements.Eighty-seven core and seven TTFNAB procedures were performed under the guidance of a 128-slice CT device (Somatom Definition AS Plus 128, Siemens Healthcare, Forchheim, Germany). The CT images of all cases were analyzed retrospectively. Patients were evaluated according to the localization of biopsy entry site and the parenchymal distance from the pleural surface to the lesion in the biopsy tract
