| | Needle aspiration biopsy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Sometimes, surgery is needed to treat complications of a needle aspiration biopsy. | | | One needle may be used as a guide, with the other needles placed along it to achieve a more precise position. | | | Fine needle aspiration biopsies are very safe, minor surgical procedures. |

| | Ultrasound may be used to guide the placement of the needle during a fine-needle aspiration biopsy or core needle biopsy. | | | A fine-needle aspiration biopsy is usually done by a internist, family medicine doctor, pathologist, radiologist, general surgeon, or a surgeon's physician assistant. | | | After a fine-needle aspiration biopsy, core needle biopsy, or stereotactic biopsy, the site may be tender for a couple of days. |

| | The patient then underwent percutaneous transthoracic needle aspiration biopsy, which was positive for adenocarcinoma. | | | The common complications that might be encountered in performing needle aspiration biopsy of the lung are pneumothorax, hemorrhage, infection, and air emboli. | | | Because of its rare incidence, however, this complication should not affect the use of needle aspiration biopsy in bronchogenic carcinoma, although care should be undertaken during the procedure. |

| | Because the needles used for Fine Needle Aspiration biopsies are smaller than needles used to draw blood, local anesthesia is not required. | | | Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA) is a biopsy procedure that uses a thin needle on a syringe to draw fluid and/or cellular material from a breast abnormality. | | | Fine Needle Aspiration biopsy procedures are generally performed by a physician in his or her office. |

| | After the needle is removed, the biopsy physician should ask the patient or assistant to hold steady pressure on the area with the gauze while the physician prepares the cytology slides. | | | Immediately after the needle is removed from the patient (it should still be attached to the syringe), remove it from the tip of the syringe, pull up 10 cc’s of air, and replace the needle on the syringe tip. | | | Release suction of the syringe while the needle is still deeply within the tissue mass, then withdraw the needle from the mass and patient. |

| | The conditions of ten patients (71.4 percent) could not be diagnosed by needle aspiration biopsy specimens from the central portion, while confirming histologic diagnoses were obtained in all 14 patients by needle aspiration biopsy specimens from the tumor wall. | | | False-negative results from transthoracic needle aspiration biopsy of malignant lung masses may occur if a central necrotic area is present and is the source of the biopsy material. | | | A 22-gauge needle with an outer sheath and an inner stylet was used for ultrasound-guided aspiration biopsy.[6,7] The aspirated material was submitted for cytologic and histologic examinations, as well as microbiologic examination if superimposed infection was suspected. |

| | Vacuum-assisted biopsy is safe, reliable, and valuable for patients who are not candidates for other minimally invasive biopsy techniques and those who wish to avoid surgical biopsy. | | | This procedure is similar to fine needle aspiration, but the needle is larger, enabling a larger sample to be obtained. | | | Core needle biopsy may provide a more accurate analysis and diagnosis than fine needle aspiration because tissue is removed, rather than just cells. |

| | After the procedure, the biopsy site may be tender or show some bruising. | | | In general, a local anesthetic is not used for this type of procedure as local anesthesia also requires a needle injection, and may interfere with sampling. | | | If the lump enlarges, you may need to have another fine needle aspiration or an open surgical biopsy. |

| | In lung carcinoma flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy is the diagnostic method of choice because it provides important anatomic information.Transthoracic needle aspiration biopsy is generally reserved for cases where the patient is either not a surgical candidate, has multiple lesions, or has known metastatic disease. | | | Major complications from transthoracic needle aspiration include pneumothorax and hemoptysis.Pneumothorax occurs in 10-30% of cases, but only 0-15% require a chest tube.While minor hemoptysis does occur, it usually resolves without therapy.Severe hemorrhage is a rare event. | | | After the procedure, the patient is monitored for a few hours, and a chest x-ray may be obtained to check for a pneumothorax.The possibility of an asymptomatic pneumothorax occurring more than 4 hours post-procedure is very low. |
