Abstract   CT-guided Transthoracic needle aspiration biopsy(TNAB) of chest lesions had been increasingly accepted as a major part af the diagnostic workup for malignancy. The authors evaluated the usefulness of the CT-guided TNAB of chest lesions of its diagnostic accuracy and compliciation. Our series consisted af 96 patients and 104 TNAB cases biopsied at KangNam St. Mary's Hosp. from Jan. 1988 to Dec. 1991. A diagnosis was made in 50 of 65 malignant lesions(76.9%), and in l9 of 24 be- nign lesions(79.1%). Complications included pneumothorax(25.0%), hemoptysis(2.8%), pain(5.8%), fever(1.0%). The high frequency of pneumothorax in small lesions(less than 2 cm-50%) was noted. In conclusion, TNAB is relatively safe, simple procedure that has time-and cost-saving benefit, and has a significant diagnostic potentiaL
