About this study

Official title: 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.

Read the 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.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Preoperative Stereoscopic LocalizationProcedure or surgery

    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 .

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. success rate of Stereoscopic Localization

    Success localization means that the distance from lession to anchor point is less than 3.0 cm.

    Measured: 3 day

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Comparison between Stereoscopic Localization success rate and Methylene Blue Localization success rate

    To evaluate the two kinds of Localization.Success localization means that the distance from lession to anchor point is less than 3.0 cm.

    Measured: 3 day

  2. Distance from A to B

    A:lession B:methylene blue anchor point To evaluate the accuracy of methylene blue localization.Measure the distance from lession to the methylene blue localization anchor point

    Measured: 3 day

  3. Distance from A to C

    A:lession C:Stereoscopic Localization anchor point To evaluate the accuracy of Stereoscopic Localization localization.Measure the distance from lession to the Stereoscopic Localization localization anchor point

    Measured: 3 day

  4. Distance from B to C

    B:methylene blue anchor point C:Stereoscopic Localization anchor point To evaluate the two kinds of Localization.Measure the distance from methylene blue localization anchor point to the stereoscopic localization anchor point .

    Measured: 3 day

  5. The success rate of wedge resection

    To evaluate the accuracy rate of localization

    Measured: 3 day

  6. Postoperative adverse event incidence rate

    To evaluate the incidence rate of pneumothorax or perilesional hemorrhage in participants

    Measured: 1 months
