lüll Fine-needle aspiration biopsy of sarcomas and related tumors Ward WG; Savage P; Boles CA; Kilpatrick SECancer Control 2001[May]; 8 (3): 232-8BACKGROUND: Largely due to a lack of experience, familiarity, and/or confidence, few centers rely on simple fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) for the diagnosis of sarcomas and related tumors. METHODS: The authors have reviewed their own experience in more than 200 cases of FNAB of bone and soft-tissue tumors, as well as cases reported in the literature. RESULTS: FNAB has proven to be accurate and useful in 8 consecutive years of clinical experience. No serious complications have occurred. CONCLUSIONS: FNAB is recommended as an integral part of the initial evaluation of amenable orthopaedic tumors, including sarcomas, especially in cases with classic clinical and radiographic findings.|Adolescent[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Aged[MESH]|Biopsy, Needle/*methods[MESH]|Bone Neoplasms/*pathology/secondary[MESH]|Carcinoma, Renal Cell/pathology[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Chondrosarcoma/pathology[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Osteosarcoma/pathology[MESH]|Sarcoma, Ewing/pathology[MESH]|Sarcoma/*pathology[MESH]|Soft Tissue Neoplasms/*pathology[MESH] |
