August 14, 2017 updated by: Wen-zhao ZHONG, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital

Preoperative Stereoscopic Localization Versus Methylene Blue Localization in GGO Patients With Lung Wedge Resection:A Prospective Self-control Study.

This study evaluates the feasibility,accuracy and safety of Preoperative Stereoscopic Localization Versus Methylene Blue Localization in GGO Wedge Resection. In the first stage,participants will receive both Preoperative Stereoscopic Localization and Methylene Blue Localization .In the second stage,participants only receive Preoperative Stereoscopic Localization for Wedge Resection.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

More and more Ground Glass Opacity(GGO)are detected because of the early screening.According to Fleischner Society, for some solid GGO, surgical resection should be performed if the solid component is larger than 5mm.With the development of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) techniques, minimally invasive thoracic surgery has evolved considerably over the last three decades.However, localizing the small sized pulmonary nodules during VATS is challenging when there is no change in visceral pleura.

Several traditional techniques have been described to localize peripheral pulmonary nodules, including preoperative CT-guided tattooing with methylene blue, CT scan guided spiral/hook wire placement and marking with radio-opaque materials. The traditional marking method have its strong and weak points. For the strong point, It provide a credible and precise nodule location to the surgeon. For the weak points:(1)a potential risk of pneumothorax and hemothorax.(2)Methylene blue have a tendency to diffuse over a large area during surgical preparation until the nodule's location is confirmed.(3)The Preoperative localization technique would need more time for the Preoperative preparation, which would be reduce the transport's efficiency.(4)It would occupy the resource of CT's usage.(5)Some of the methods ,such as methylene blue, maybe interference with the Pathological diagnosis.(6)These methods are all invasive operation, would Cause the patients' psychological fear.

In order to avoid these weak points,the investigators use a new localization technique which has three basic steps: 1.Confirm the nodule's location in pulmonary segments. 2.Measure the distance between the nodule and anatomic landmarks on CT. 3. Estimate the changes of the distance between the nodule and anatomic landmarks after the alveolar atelectasis. The investigators have already succeed in some case.But,the further study is needed.Hence,the investigators designed a prospective study of Preoperative Stereoscopic Localization Versus Methylene Blue Localization in GGO Wedge Resection.Then,the investigators evaluate the feasibility,accuracy and safety of Preoperative Stereoscopic Localization Versus Methylene Blue Localization in GGO Wedge Resection.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Stereoscopic Versus Methylene Blue

In the same participant,we perform both Stereoscopic and Methylene Blue localization。Then,compare the distance between the methylene blue's anchor point and the location of lesion,stereoscopic Localization's anchor point and the location of lesion,methylene blue's anchor point and stereoscopic Localization's anchor point.

Post Hoc Multiple Comparisons

1.Confirm the nodule's location and measure the distance between the nodule and anatomic landmarks from the CT scan. 2.According to the results of the first step,confirm the needle puncture site of the chest wall. 3.After general anesthesia and Patient positioning are completed, the needle is then inserted via the needle puncture site .
