Background: Early diagnosis of lung cancer can reduce its mortality and morbidity. Minimally invasive image guided percutaneous core needle biopsy can obtain tissue sample for diagnosis and staging of lung cancer, which is crucial for correct management of lung lesions. Common complications of lung biopsy include pneumothorax, parenchymal haemorrhage and haemoptysis. The study was aimed to determine diagnostic yield and complications of the percutaneous computed tomography (CT) guided core needle biopsy of lung lesion in tertiary hospital.Methods: Hospital based prospective study was performed in 40 patients in Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital. CT guided biopsy of lung lesions was performed with 18-gauge semi-automated biopsy instrument. The complications following the biopsy were recorded and correlated with different factors using chi-square test. Histopathology report were obtained to measure the diagnostic yield.Results: Among 40 patients who underwent guided lung biopsy, histopathology showed definitive diagnosis in 37 patients; 31 malignant and 6 benign lesions. Parenchymal haemorrhage, pneumothorax and haemoptysis were seen in 13, 8 and 5 respectively; however, none required active intervention. Emphysema in traversing lung and numbers of pleural punctures used were predictive factors of complication (p value <0.05).Conclusions: The study showed percutaneous image guided core needle biopsy has high diagnostic yield with fewer complication rates and is thus recommended for routine biopsies of lung lesions.

Background: CT guided core needle biopsy is a less invasive method for initial diagnostic workup in the assessment of intrathoracic masses. This study was conducted to evaluate the diagnostic yield of the procedure as well as to demonstrate the spectrum of various disease in our population.Methods: Present study was conducted in a tertiary care hospital for a study period of two years. Patients with intrathoracic mass were included and CT guided biopsies were performed following a protocol. The CT guided biopsies received were examined for histological diagnosis. Immunohistochemistry was carried out where ever routine histopathology was not sufficient for diagnosis. Relevant immunohistochemical panels were applied for lung, mediastinal and pleural tumours according to the histological differential diagnosis. Detailed demographic and clinical profiles along with radiological findings were noted.Results: Total of 138 cases were taken for CT guided FNAC procedure and 123 (89.1%) cases yielded diagnostic biopsy. Lung was the most commonly involved organ followed by mediastinum. Bronchogenic carcinoma was the most common lesion reported in lung and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma was the most common mediastinal lesion. Lung collapse was most common radiological feature.Conclusions: CT guided percutaneous biopsy is a valuable diagnostic technique providing for early accurate diagnosis and being minimally invasive procedure. Care should be taken while tissue processing and section cutting of intrathoracic biopsies as the biopsies are small and tissue loss should be prevented so that sufficient material is available for immunohistochemistry.
