Objective: The aim of this study was to
evaluated the effectiveness of  computed
tomography(CT) guided transthorasic fine needle aspiration biopsy in the
diagnosis of lung mass lesions.

Material and Method: In this study, we are presenting
354 CT guided TTFNAB materials. The 348 of aspirations were performed from lung
directly and 6 of them were performed from masses with mediastinal location.
After the lesion was localized by CT, aspiration biopsy was performed by
thoracic surgeon with 20-22 gauge Chiba needle by using 20 ml.

Results: Among the 220 patients who
underwent TTFNAB (354 aspiration biopsy), 163(46.04%)  were diagnosed as tumor, 74(20.90%)  as suspicious lesion, 71(20.05)  as benign lesion and 46(12.99%)  as aspirate nondiagnostic. 140(39.54%)
aspirata cell blocks were applied to 134 cases. Immunohistochemical and
histochemical studies were performed in these cases and type differentiation
could be made in tumor.

Conclusion: TTFNAB-CB in expert hands and
experienced pathologists is fairly accurate for lung masses  and can be regarded as an acceptable
procedure for early  diagnose  and treatment 
planning  purposes in most lung
lesions.
