  • Transtorakalna igelna aspiracijska biopsija pljuč na Golniku 1998 = Transthoracic needle aspiration biopsy of lung at Golnik in 1998
    Debeljak, Andrej, 1940- ...
    Background. Transthoracic needle aspiration biopsy is one of the basic invasive diagnostic procedures in patients with lung, especially malignant diseases. Because of the staff rotation of the ... doctors, we were interested in the sensitivity of the procedure in 1998. Methods. In 1998 we performed 132 fluoroscopy-guided transthoracic needle biopsies in 108 patients, 83 males and25 females, aged 55.7 +- 11.6 years. Nordenstrom needle was applied 126 times, Rotex or Hepafix needle were used 6 times. The samples were examined cytologically, bacteriologically or histologically. Results. Overall sensitivity of the lung needle biopsy was 70% (76/108). Sensitivity in patients with malignancy was 88% (44/50), specificity was 98% and in patients with benign diseases the sensitivity was 67%(32/48). We improved the diagnostics in 60% (12/20) of patients in which we repeated the procedure two or three times. After complete diagnostic workup in 10 patients were unable tomake the diagnosis. In 5.5% (6/108) of patients the pneumotorax occured. Chest tube placement was necessary in one patient.
