Abstract:
:The fine gauge Chiba needle was evaluated in percutaneous aspiration biopsy in 20 patients with suspected malignant lung neoplasm. Adequate aspirate can be obtained with one biopsy. A confident cytological diagnosis of malignancy was made in 19 out of 20 patients. Most of the patients were elderly. Nine patients developed pneumothoraces which were small and asymptomatic. The needle is easy to handle and very acceptable to patients. This needle therefore appears to be very suitable for percutaneous aspiration biopsy of lung neoplasms and possibly other non-neoplastic lesions too. It promises to supersede the larger aspiration needles currently in use.
