Lung Biopsy
Articles and resources for Lung Biopsy in Oncologic Surgery.
A lung biopsy is a medical procedure used to obtain a small sample of lung tissue for examination under a microscope. It is often considered when there are abnormal findings on imaging tests, such as a CT scan or chest X-ray, which may suggest the presence of lung cancer, infections, or other lung diseases. The biopsy helps doctors determine the nature of these abnormalities, guiding diagnosis and treatment decisions.
The procedure can be performed using various techniques, including needle biopsy, where a thin needle is inserted through the chest wall to collect tissue, or bronchoscopy, which involves using a thin tube to access the lungs through the airways. Patients may receive local anesthesia to minimize discomfort, and the procedure can often be done on an outpatient basis. After the biopsy, monitoring for any immediate complications is standard.
The benefits of a lung biopsy include obtaining a definitive diagnosis, which can greatly influence treatment options and prognosis. However, there are risks involved, such as bleeding, infection, or damage to surrounding structures in the chest. Understanding these factors is essential for patients and their families as they navigate the complexities of lung health and potential treatment pathways.
