Percutaneous Core Needle Biopsy

A biopsy is a prerequisite for the diagnosis and evaluation of musculoskeletal tumors. It is considered that surgical biopsy provides a more reliable diagnosis because it can obtain more tumor material for pathological analysis. However, it is often associated with a significant complication rate. Imaging-guided percutaneous core needle biopsy (PCNB) is now widely used as an alternative to surgical biopsy; it appears to be minimally invasive, possibly with lower complication rates. This study evaluates the diagnostic yield of the preferred use of PCNB in a referral center, its accuracy, and its complication rate. The data relating to the biopsy and the histological analysis were extracted from the database of a bone tumor reference center where PCNB of bone tumors was discussed as a first-line option. 196 bone tumors were biopsied percutaneously between 2016 and 2020. They were located in the axial skeleton in 21.4% (42) of cases, in the lower limb in 58.7% (115), and in the upper limb in 19.9% (39) cases. We obtained a diagnosis yield of 84.7% and a diagnosis accuracy of 91.7%. The overall complication rate of the percutaneous biopsies observed was 1.0% (n = 2), consisting of two hematomas. PCNB performed in a referral center is a safe, precise procedure, with a very low complication rate, and which avoids the need for first-line open surgical biopsy. The consultation between pathologist, radiologist, and clinician in an expert reference center makes this technique an effective choice as a first-line diagnosis tool.
