Abstract
This study aims to investigate the effect of ultrasound (US)-guided coaxial puncture needle in puncture biopsy of peripheral pulmonary masses. In this retrospective analysis, 157 patients who underwent US-guided percutaneous lung biopsy in our hospital were divided into a coaxial biopsy group and a conventional biopsy group (the control group) according to the puncture tools involved, with 73 and 84 patients, respectively. The average puncture time, number of sampling, sampling satisfaction rate, puncture success rate and complication rate between the 2 groups were compared and discussed in detail. One hundred fifty-seven patients underwent puncture biopsy, and 145 patients finally obtained definitive pathological results. The overall puncture success rate was 92.4% ([145/157]; with a puncture success rate of 97.3% [71/73] from the coaxial biopsy group and a puncture success rate of 88.1% [74/84] from the conventional biopsy group (P < .05). For peripheral pulmonary masses ≤3 cm, the average puncture time in the coaxial biopsy group was shorter than that in the conventional biopsy group, and the number of sampling, sampling satisfaction rate and puncture success rate were significantly higher than those in the conventional biopsy group (P < .05). There was no significant difference in the complication rate between the 2 groups (P > .05). For peripheral pulmonary masses >3 cm, the average puncture time in the coaxial biopsy group was still shorter than that in the conventional biopsy group (P < .05). The differences between the 2 groups in the number of sampling, satisfaction rate of the sampling, the success rate of puncture and the incidence of complications were not significant (P > .05). US guided coaxial puncture biopsy could save puncture time, increase the number of sampling, and improve the satisfaction rate of sampling and the success rate of puncture (especially for small lesions) by establishing a biopsy channel on the basis of the coaxial needle sheath. It provided reliable information for the diagnosis, differential diagnosis and individualized accurate treatment of lesions as well.
