While not free from hazards, CT-guided biopsy of the lung is a safe procedure, with few major complications. Despite its safety record, however, potentially fatal complications do rarely occur. We report a case of pericardial tamponade following CT-guided lung biopsy. Rapid diagnosis and therapy allowed for complete patient recovery. Physicians who perform this procedure should be aware of the known complications and be prepared to treat them appropriately.
虽然CT引导下的肺活检并非没有风险,但它是一种安全的操作,很少有严重并发症。然而,尽管有其安全记录,潜在的致命并发症确实很少发生。我们报告一例CT引导下肺活检后发生心包填塞的病例。快速诊断和治疗使患者完全康复。进行该操作的医生应了解已知的并发症,并准备好进行适当治疗。
