Objective To evaluate the short-term effect of CT-guided interstitial implantation of 125I seeds for metastatic lung carcinoma. Methods A total of 82 patients with 126 metastatic lung tumors were treated with CT-guided percutaneous interstitial implantation of 125I seeds at a dose of 80 Gy. Six months after the treatment, the change of tumor volume was observed by using CT scan. The patients were followed up for 2 years. Results The mean radioactive dose was (159.3?34.5) Gy, and the median dose was (118.6?33.2) Gy. Six months after the treatment, CT scan showed a CR of 25.4% (32/126), PR 64.3% (81/126), NC 6.3% (8/126), PD 4.0% (5/126), and CR+PR 89.7% (113/126). Twelve patients showed pneumothorax and 41 had hemoptysis. During the follow-up, 11 patients (6 cases of malignant fibrous histiotoma, 3 cases of lung cancer, 1 rectal carcinoma, and 1 liver carcinoma) died within 8-12 months after the surgery. Fifteen patients (4 cases of malignant fibrous histiotoma, 4 lung cancer, 4 ovarian cancer, 2 multiple myeloma, and 1 uterine leiomyosarcoma) died within 13-24 months after the implantation. The 1-and 2-year survival rates were 86.6% (71/82) and 68.3% (56/82) respectively. Conclusion CT-guided percutaneous interstitial implantation of 125I seeds is effective for lung metastatic carcinoma.
