Gelatinous foam needle tract embolization during CT guided percutaneous transthoracic lung biopsy: A practical and cost effective approach in the community hospital setting

Gelatinous foam (GelFoam, Pfizer, Inc, New York, NY) is a low cost, readily available material with a wide range of procedural applications. A novel implementation during computed tomography (CT) guided percutaneous lung biopsy to reduce the rates of pneumothorax leading to further intervention with...

description Gelatinous foam (GelFoam, Pfizer, Inc, New York, NY) is a low cost, readily available material with a wide range of procedural applications. A novel implementation during computed tomography (CT) guided percutaneous lung biopsy to reduce the rates of pneumothorax leading to further intervention with chest tube placement. We present the imaging and outcome of a patient undergoing this procedure in a community hospital setting.
