Ultrasound guided synovial biopsy using portal and forceps.
OBJECTIVE To describe a new method for taking a synovial biopsy specimen under ultrasound guidance using portal and forceps. METHODS Percutaneous ultrasound guided biopsy was performed for 37 patients with mono- or polyarthritis as outpatients. A portal to a planned area was built using a needle, guiding wire, and dilators, through which forceps could be inserted and samples taken. Biopsy sam...
متن کاملCombined ultrasound-guided cutting-needle biopsy and standard pleural biopsy for diagnosis of malignant pleural effusions
BACKGROUND The most efficient approach to diagnose malignant pleural effusions (MPEs) is still controversial and uncertain. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of a combined approach using ultrasound (US)-guided cutting-needle biopsy (CNB) and standard pleural biopsy (SPB) for diagnosing MPE. METHODS Pleural effusions were collected from 172 patients for biochemical and microbiological a...
متن کاملPercutaneous visceral pleural biopsy with fenestrated cup biopsy forceps.
When there is an exudative pleural effusion often both the parietal and the visceral pleura are affected, but the usual practice is to perform a percutaneous parietal pleural biopsy alone for diagnosis. Percutaneous visceral pleural biopsy was carried out in 20 patients with exudative pleural effusions with fenestrated cup biopsy forceps. In all 20 biopsies pleural tissue was obtained and it wa...
متن کاملEndobronchial ultrasound-guided lymph node biopsy with transbronchial needle forceps: a pilot study.
One limitation of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) is the size of the available needles, frequently yielding only cells for cytological examination. The aim of this pilot study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of newly developed needle forceps to obtain tissue for the histological diagnosis of enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes. Patients with enl...
متن کاملNeedle versus Forceps Technique in Ultrasound-Guided Synovial Biopsy of the Knee Joint
Objectives: Ultrasound-guided synovial biopsy is increasingly applied in rheumatology. Usually forcepsor needle-based techniques are used. So far there has been no direct comparison of different devices regarding their suitability in high resolution musculoskeletal ultrasound (hrMSUS)-guided synovial biopsy. Methods: A core needle biopsy (Quickcore, Cook Medical, Bloomington, IN, USA), an anter...
