[A Preliminary Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of A Optimized Computed Tomography-guided Pulmonary Nodule Microcoil Localization Technique].

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Preoperative computed tomography (CT) guided microcoil localization is a common method for small lung nodules before video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). However, this method still has some limitation such as complicated operation and slight complications. We have optimized the original method. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical value of this optimized method. METHODS:35 pulmonary nodules from 31 patients between September 2018 and January 2019 were localized by the optimized method before VATS. The success rate, complications, pathological results and localization operations related data were statistically analyzed. RESULTS:The success rate of localization was 97.1%, and the success rate of VATS removal was 100%. The average operation time was 10.1 min (5 min-31 min), and the average time required for resection of lesions was 38.2 min (10 min-100 min). During the surgery, the microcoil of one patient was found to be dislocated and retracted into the chest wall. A puncture needle was inserted intolung tissue from the chest wall puncture point after the lung was inflated, and then the pulmonary nodule were successfully located and removed. A minor pneumothorax occurred in 3 patients, but no closed drainage was needed. Three patients developed intrapulmonary hematoma. The pathological results of 35 pulmonary nodules included 15 well-differentiated adenocarcinoma, 7 carcinoma in situ, 5 microinvasive adenocarcinoma, 4 atypical adenomatoid hyperplasia, 2 intrapulmonary lymph node hyperplasia, 2 inflammatory nodules. CONCLUSIONS:For small pulmonary nodules requiring thoracoscopic surgery, the optimized computed tomography-guided pulmonary nodule microcoil localization technique is convenient, safe and effective, and worthy of promotion to use.

Project description:ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of the computed tomography (CT)-guided hook-wire localization technique in thoracoscopic surgery for small pulmonary nodules (≤ 10 mm) and to identify the risk factors for localization-related complications.MethodsThe medical records of 150 patients with small pulmonary nodules treated from January 2018 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to preoperative hook-wire positioning status, they were divided into the localization group (50 cases) or the control group (100 cases). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, and conversion rate to thoracotomy were recorded and compared between groups. Uni- and multivariate binary logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for localization-related complications.ResultsA total of 58 nodules were localized in 50 patients in the localization group, and the localization success rate was 98.3% (57/58). In one case, the positioning pin fell off before wedge resection was performed. The mean nodule diameter was 7.05 mm (range, 2.8-10.0 mm), while the mean depth from the pleura was 22.40 mm (range, 5.47-79.47 mm). There were 8 cases (16%) of asymptomatic pneumothorax, 2 (4%) of intrapulmonary hemorrhage, and 1 (2%) of pleural reaction.The mean operation time of the localization group (103.88 ± 41.74 min) was significantly shorter than that of the control group (133.30 ± 45.42 min) (P < 0.05). The mean intraoperative blood loss of the localization group (44.20 ± 34.17 mL) was significantly lower than that of the control group (112.30 ± 219.90 mL) (P < 0.05). The mean hospital stay of the localization group (7.96 ± 2.34 days) was significantly shorter than that of the control group (9.21 ± 3.25 days).Multivariate binary logistic analysis showed that localization times of small pulmonary nodules in the localization group was an independent risk factor for localization-related pneumothorax.ConclusionsOur results suggest that the CT-guided hook-wire localization technique is beneficial for localizing small pulmonary nodules. Specifically, it is helpful for the diagnosis and treatment of early lung cancer because it can accurately remove lesions, decrease intraoperative blood loss, shorten operation time and hospitalization stay, and reduce thoracotomy conversion rate. Simultaneous positioning of multiple nodules can easily lead to positioning-related pneumothorax.

Project description:BackgroundTo evaluate the feasibility and safety of microcoil in simultaneous localization for multiple pulmonary nodules before video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS).MethodsTwenty-eight consecutive patients (26 two-nodule, 2 three-nodule; 58 nodules in total; Group A) underwent simultaneous CT-guided localization of multiple pulmonary nodules before VATS using microcoil. Successful targeting, localization, and VATS were defined as implantation of microcoil at the target site on CT image which was obtained immediately after the marking procedure, visualization of nodule location, and complete resection of the target nodule with adequate margin, respectively. Meanwhile, the clinical characteristics, localization procedure-related variables of the nodules and procedure-related complications in group A were also assessed and compared with those in a control group (221 single-localization procedures in 221 patients; Group B).ResultsSimilar rates of successful targeting, localization and VATS were observed in group A and B (96.6% vs. 98.2%; 91.4% vs. 91.0%; 100% vs. 99.1%). Although the rate of overall complications (including localized pneumothorax and intrapulmonary hemorrhage) was a bit higher in group A than that in group B (32.8% vs. 30.8%, p = 0.771), only minor complications were observed in the subjects of the two groups with no need for further treatment. In addition, the duration of simultaneous localization procedures was significantly longer than that of single localization (24 ± 7.5 vs.13 ± 6 min, p < 0.001).ConclusionsCT-guided simultaneous microcoil localization for multiple pulmonary nodules before VATS was clinically feasible and safe with acceptable increase in the procedure time. Compared with localization for a single pulmonary nodule, simultaneous microcoil localizations for multiple nodules were prone to pneumothorax and hemorrhage. However, no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups.
