The nodule-pleura relationship affects pneumothorax in CT-guided percutaneous transthoracic needle biopsy: avoiding to cross pleural tail sign may reduce the incidence of pneumothorax
Patients with crossing PTS, a nodule in the middle or lower lobe, longer puncture time, biopsy side up, deeper needle insertion depth (intrapulmonary), and perifocal emphysema were more likely to experience pneumothorax in PTNB. When performing the biopsy on a nodule with PTS, selecting a route that avoids crossing through the PTS may be advisable to reduce the risk of pneumothorax.
