Can a lung puncture test be done on the same day?

Jan 05, 2022

Precautions after lung puncture surgery:

1. Postoperative treatment: Need to observe for 2 to 4 hours after the needle biopsy. If there is no abnormality by fluoroscopy, radiography or CT scan, you can go home for observation.

2. Complications ① Pneumothorax: the most common complication. If the lungs are compressed by 20% and the symptoms tend to get worse, the chest cavity should be treated with exhaust. ②Bleeding: mild hemoptysis, bed rest, oral or intramuscular injection of Valium. Large amounts of hemoptysis can be treated with hemostatic drugs such as vasopressin. ③Air embolism: rare but serious consequences. During operation, care should be taken to prevent penetration into the pulmonary blood vessels, and immediately block the trocar with the needle core after each suction to prevent air from entering. ④ Tumor spread: rare. The needle core should be properly protected with a cannula when removing the needle to prevent the biopsy material from falling off along the needle track.
