To compare the effectiveness and safety of preoperative lung localization by pulmonary nodule localization wire and Hook-wire.
Methods:
A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 119 patients with preoperative pulmonary nodules located by computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous puncture was performed. According to the use of different localization method
they were divided into localization wire group (50 cases) and Hook-wire group (69 cases). The location of lesion
nodule size
distance between nodule and pleura
localization time
localization success rate
and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups. Related risk factors of complications were analyzed by logistic regression.
Results:
There was no significant difference between the two groups in nodule position
nodule diameter and the distance between the pulmonary nodule. The localization time was similar in the two groups [16(14
19) min
vs
16(14
18.5) min

different localization methods were independent risk factors (OR=0.208

P
<0.001).
Conclusion:
The localization time and localization success rate are similar
but the localization wire group has fewer complica
