Lipiodol Localization for Ground-glass-opacity Minimal Surgery

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Pulmonary Lesion With Ground-glass-opacity
Interventions
Procedure: Hookwire
Registration Number
NCT02180568
Lead Sponsor
Severance Hospital
Brief Summary

The study object is to demonstrate the usefulness and safety of lipiodol localization technique for individuals undergoing ground-glass opacity (GGO) Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) resection compared to hook wire localization technique. A total of 250 participants will be enrolled in a 1:1 fashion to Lipiodol or Hook-wire groups. If the aims of this study are achieved, the use of lipiodol localization technique will be widespread their application for localization of non-palpable pulmonary lesions that are indicated for VATS resection.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Procedure success rateone day

Procedure success was defined as marking (lipiodol or hook-wire) the GGO lesion within 1 cm without pleural leakage of lipiodol or dislodgement of the hook-wire.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Procedure time1 hour

Total procedure time for lung localization

Complication rateone day

Procedure-related complications such as pneumothorax, lung hemorrhage, hemoptysis, air-embolism and death

Safety resection margin1 hour

The safety specimen resection margin was categorized either as positive (grossly positive (R2), microscopically positive if tumor was at the inked surface (R1)), or negative (microscopically negative if there was no tumor at the inked surface (R0))

Surgery time12 hours

Surgery time for obtaining wedge resection specimen
