ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The use of sublobar resection has increased with advances in imaging technologies. However, it is difficult for thoracic surgeons to identify small lung tumours intraoperatively. Radiofrequency identification (RFID) lung-marking systems are useful for overcoming this difficulty; however, accurate placement is essential for maximum effectiveness.METHODS:
We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent RFID tag placement via fluoroscopic bronchoscopy under virtual bronchoscopic navigation (VBN) guidance before our institution's sublobar resection of lung lesions. Thirty-one patients with 31 lung lesions underwent RFID lung-marking with fluoroscopic bronchoscopy under VBN guidance.RESULTS:
Of the 31 procedures, 26 tags were placed within 10 mm of the target site, 2 were placed more than 10 mm away from the target site, and 3 were placed in a different area from the target bronchus. No clinical complications were associated with RFID tag placement, such as pneumothorax or bleeding. The contribution of the RFID lung-marking system to surgery was high, particularly when the RFID tag was placed at the target site and tumour was located in the intermediate hilar zone.CONCLUSIONS:
An RFID tag can be placed near the target site using fluoroscopic bronchoscopy in combination with VBN guidance. RFID tag placement under fluoroscopic bronchoscopy with VBN guidance is useful for certain segmentectomies.Palabras clave
