In the diagnostics of nodular and infiltrative lung lesions in 28 patients the transthoracic needle biopsy of the lung was performed both by Nordenström and Rotex needle. In confirming the cancer, both needles were equally satisfactory. By Rotex needle the tissue sample was obtained also from hard lesions from which the tissue sample with Nordenström needle couldn't be obtained. By transthoracic needle biopsy of the lung the diagnosis of benign disease was confirmed in two patients with isolation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from the sample obtained by Rotex needle.
