Abstract:
Objective To discuss the clinical application of MSCT-guided BARD gun biopsy in diagnosing pulmonary lesions. Methods Under MSCT-guidance percutaneous transthoracic biopsy of lung with BARD gun was performed in 68 patients with pulmonary lesions. Results All the procedures were well performed with the technical successful rate of 100%. The final diagnosis was based on the pathological findings or clinical follow-up observation. The accuracy of the qualitative diagnosis was 94.1%. Of 68 patients, squamous cell carcinoma was found in 30, adenocarcinoma in 21, metastases in 7, inflammatory pseudotumor in 3, lung abscess in 2, and tuberculosis in one. The false-negative rate in making diagnosis was 5.9%. The complication occurrence was 8.8%. Conclusion BARD gun has the advantage of making coaxial- multipoint biopsy. With the help of MSCT-guidance and the full use of the operating advantage of BARD gun, this technique is safe and reliable, with higher accuracy and less complications.
