Abstract

Objective To evaluate the clinical application value of Percutaneous lung biopsy for the diagnosis for lung lesions.Methods Percutaneous lung biopsy was performed in 52 cases whose diagnosis were unclear by routine examation method.Results Pathological diagnosis was established in 46 cases.The diagnosis accuracy of Percutaneous lung biopsy was 88.9%.Complications were 5 case pneumothorax and 2 case hemoptysis.Conclusion Percutaneous lung biopsy is an effective and relatively safe method for obtaining diagnosis specimen from lung lesions because of low complication and high accuracy rate.
