Abstract
Percutaneous Transthoracic Needle Biopsy (PTNB) is an accepted technique for the diagnosis of suspected intrathoracic malignancy and, although the appropriate indications have not been clearly defined yet, its use has rapidly expanded in the last years. The authors reviewed retrospectively their experience over one-year time biopsies and analyzed some controversies regarding this diagnostic procedure.Entities:
