A limiting factor in removing pulmonary nodules by videothoracoscopic
techniques is the inability to locate lesions deep within the substance of
the lung. We describe a technique in which a hook wire commonly used to
localize nonpalpable breast lesions is placed percutaneously into the lung
nodule preoperatively. Using the wire anchored into the lung as a guide,
the target lesion can be successfully identified and removed
thoracoscopically.
