This study investigated procedural and lesion-related factors affecting success and complication rates in routine CTF-guided lung core-needle biopsies at a tertiary center.  \nMETHODS  \nConsecutive patients undergoing percutaneous CTF-guided lung biopsies over a 10-year period (2007–2016) were retrospectively analyzed. Data collected included lesion characteristics, procedural details, and outcomes, including technical and clinical success and complications. Multivariable logistic regressions were used to identify predictors of complications and biopsy failure.  \nRESULTS  \nAmong 641 patients (43% female; median age 67 years) with a median lesion size of 3.1 cm, technical and clinical success rates were 99% and 93%, respectively. Clinical success was associated with multiple pulmonary lesions and longer specimen length, with multivariable analysis identifying multiple lesions as the sole independent predictor [odds ratio (OR): 2.4] . Major complications (n = 70, 11%), primarily pneumothorax (n = 62, 90%), were associated with a longer intrapulmonary needle tract, greater pleura-to-lesion distance, smaller lesion size, fissure crossing, and the presence of emphysema or subpleural air cysts. Multivariable analysis identified smaller lesion size (OR: 0.8)  \nand greater pleura-to-lesion distance (OR: 1.5) as independent risk factors.  \nCONCLUSION  \nCTF-guided lung biopsy is a safe and effective method for tissue sampling with high diagnostic success rates. Although multiple samples do not increase the risk of major complications, factors such as small lesion size, greater pleura-to-lesion distance, and emphysema-related changes are associated with a higher incidence of pneumothorax, emphasizing the need for risk-aware procedural planning.  \nCLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE  \nCTF-guided lung biopsy demonstrates high diagnostic performance in routine practice. Understanding how specific anatomical features influence complication risk can guide radiologists in selecting safer biopsy approaches, especially in patients undergoing evaluation through lung cancer screening programs. Integrating these risk factors into procedural planning supports more informed, patient-centered decision-making in routine clinical practice.  \nKEYWORDS  \nBiopsy, computed tomography, fluoroscopy, interventional, lung  \nEpub: 11.09.2025  \nPublic","cbCaip4T1e1P4H3P","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaip4T1e1P4H3P","pdf",452844,11,"English","# Purpose\n# Methods\n# Results\n## Success and complications\n## Predictors of complications and biopsy failure\n# Conclusion\n# Clinical Significance\n# Keywords","[{\"question\":\"What was the purpose of this study on CTF-guided lung biopsies?\",\"answer\":\"To identify procedural and lesion-related factors influencing diagnostic success and complication rates in routine computed tomography fluoroscopy-guided lung core-needle biopsies at a tertiary center.\"},{\"question\":\"How were patients and data analyzed in the study?\",\"answer\":\"Consecutive patients undergoing percutaneous CTF-guided lung biopsies over 2007–2016 were retrospectively analyzed, collecting lesion and procedural characteristics plus technical/clinical outcomes and complications.
