Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the application of preoperative CT-guided Hook-wire localization of pulmonary nodules in thoracoscopic lobectomy of lung.Method Twenty eight patients with 31 pulmonary nodules of ground-glass opacity (GGO) detected by CT scan were admitted in our hospital from December 2008 to December 2013,including 17 males and 11 females with an average age of 55.The lesions were located by CT-guided Hook-wire technique,and lobectomy plus lymphadenectomy or pulmonary wedge resection were performed according to the results of fast frozen pathology.The characteristics of pulmonary nodules and general condition of the patients were analyzed.Results Among 31 nodules,19 were malignant and 12 benign with an average size of (1.8 ± 0.6) cm and thickness of (1.2-± 0.4) cm.The vertical distance from pleural to nodules was (1.5 ± 0.7) cm and the insert depth of needle was (2.5 ± 0.9) cm.The time for CT-guided Hook-wire localization was (16.5 ± 5.2) min.The operation time for pulmonary wedge resection and pulmonary lobectomy was (18.5 ± 5.5) min and (54.7 ± 12.5) min,respectively.Intraoperative frozen section showed malignant tumors in 18 patients (19 GGO nodules),lobectomy plus lymphadenectomy were performed in 16 cases; 2 patients did not undergo pulmonary lobectomy because of poor physical condition or 2 GGO nodules in different lobes.There were no operation complications in this series.Postoperative pathologic findings of 31 nodules showed 9 cases of adenocarcinoma,10 bronchioloalveolar carcinoma,5 atypical adenomatous hyperplasia,2 epithelioid hemangioendothelioma,2 chronic inflammation,1 hamartoma,1 inflammatory pseudotumor and 1 sarcoidosis.The average postoperative hospital stay was (6.6 ± 1.9) days.Conclusions Endoscopic resection of pulmonary GGO nodules with CT-guided Hook-wire localization technique is feasible and safe,with less complications and less time consuming.
