CT Guided Placement of the End of the Microcoil in the Pleural Cavity: A More Helpful Method for Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS) Resection of Ground Glass Opacity (GGO)
Abstract:Objective To investigate and summarize the effectiveness and safety of CT guided microcoil localization before video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) for the removal of ground glass opacity (GGO).Method 147 patients with GGO who were treated in our hospital from January 2019 to February 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into two groups according to the final position of the end of the microcoil, intracavity group (n=78) and extracavity group (n=69). Comparison of the two groups of patients … Show more
