Fluoroscopically guided transthoracic fine needle biopsies were performed in 890 patients (380 female, 582 male, mean age: 56 years). In 795 patients (89.4%) the first biopsy was successful. The success rate of biopsy correlated closely with the size of the lesion and increased with larger size. Sensitivity in the diagnosis of malignant lesions was 94.6%, specificity 99.5%. Due to cytological, histological, and clinical confirmation of benign lung lesions in 300 patients (33.7% of all patients), the number of unnecessary diagnostic thoracotomies for benign disease could be reduced significantly. In 9 of 113 cases (8%) histological reclassification of the cytologic results was necessary. Reclassification was not necessary in the differentiation between benign and malignant lesions and between small cell and non-small cell carcinomas. The overall complication rate was 24.7% (220 patients). Only 36 patients (4% of all patients) required chest-tube insertion. There were no fatal complications. Percutaneous fluoroscopically guided transthoracic fine needle biopsy of the lung, performed with the Rotex needle, is a time-effective, safe, and efficient method for diagnosing focal pulmonary lesions.

D008654 Mesothelioma A tumor derived from mesothelial tissue (peritoneum, pleura, pericardium). It appears as broad sheets of cells, with some regions containing spindle-shaped, sarcoma-like cells and other regions showing adenomatous patterns. Pleural mesotheliomas have been linked to exposure to asbestos. (Dorland, 27th ed) Mesotheliomas

D010997 Pleural Neoplasms Neoplasms of the thin serous membrane that envelopes the lungs and lines the thoracic cavity. Pleural neoplasms are exceedingly rare and are usually not diagnosed until they are advanced because in the early stages they produce no symptoms.

D002282 Adenocarcinoma, Bronchiolo-Alveolar A carcinoma derived from epithelium of terminal bronchioles, in which the neoplastic tissue extends along the alveolar walls and grows in small masses within the alveoli. Involvement may be uniformly diffuse and massive, or nodular, or lobular. The neoplastic cells are cuboidal or columnar and form papillary structures. Mucin may be demonstrated in some of the cells and in the material in the alveoli, which also includes denuded cells. Metastases in regional lymph nodes, and in even more distant sites, are known to occur, but are infrequent.
