Overview
No additional tests are recommended for the diagnosis of rhabdomyosarcoma.
Other Diagnostic Tests
Biopsy
- Tissue biopsy considered as most commonly diagnosis in rhabdomyosarcoma.[1]
- There are several ways of taking biopsies which depends on following criteria:[2][3]
- Patients's age
- Primary site of tumor
- Open surgical biopsy is considered as a recommended method to obtaining tissues and proper diagnosis.[4]
- Needle biopsies are considered as less invasive way of taking biopsies.
- Core-needle biopsy
- Fine- needle biopsy
Lumbar puncture
- Lumbar puncture is considered as unnecessary procedure in rhabdomyosarcoma diagnosis.[5]
- Lumbar puncture is usually done in parameningeal rhabdomyosarcoma.
- Also may be considered as a diagnostic study in rhabdomyosarcomas with meningeal involvement
