Musculoskeletal Biopsies Using Computed Tomography Fluoroscopy

Abstract: Computed tomography fluoroscopic-guided musculoskeletal biopsies show a high diagnostic yield and are accurate and safe. The biopsy results are similar or superior to other published reports using conventional CT guidance with only a small overall fraction being nondiagnostic. The benefits of real-time imaging are at the cost of operator exposure to ionizing radiation and the risk of potentially high exposures to both patient and operator. The impact on indications for which lesions are most amenable to percut… Show more

“…The rate of complications in CT-guided bone biopsies is very low (1.1%), while in open biopsy it may be as high as 16% (13) . Even considering that it is generally a low risk procedure, minor side effects and complications such as infections, fractures and bleeding may occur (14-16) .…”

“…En este estudio se llevó a cabo la técnica percutánea guiada con fluoroscopía. Se ha reportado como desventaja de esta técnica, el que a pesar de obtener imágenes en tiempo real, no es posible corroborar de manera exacta la obtención de material del sitio preciso de la lesión, situación que podría explicar que en algunos casos, el diagnóstico histopatológico no sea contundente 9,10,11 . Sin embargo, obteniendo un 50% de pruebas positivas en este estudio, se mantiene una cifra aproximada a los resultados de la biopsia percutánea reportados previamente por Rosales y colaboradores 1 .…”

“…El diagnóstico del conjunto de patologías que originan el SDV está en relación con datos clínicos, de gabinete, laboratorio, y hallazgos específicos para cada patología en estudios de gabinete [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] . Los estudios reportan la biopsia en general como el elemento más importante para el diagnóstico etiológico 4,12 .…”

“…4 Pneumothorax in thoracic sites, although rare, can be life-threatening. [5][6][7] Specialist expertise is required along with anesthetic support. For these reasons, a presumptive diagnosis is often made, based on putative high clinical and imaging probability.…”
