Overview
Bone biopsy findings associated with bone and cartilage tumors will depend on tumor histology, common findings include: anastomosing bony trabeculae, calcifications surrounded by cells nests, and increased/decreased osteoblasts and osteoclasts.[1]
Biopsy
Common types of bone biopsy, include:[1]
- Open
- Gold standard for diagnosis of a bone tumor
- Performed during surgery
- On malignant lesions, biopsy incisions are: longitudinal, small, or anatomically placed to minimize contamination of normal tissue
- Increased risk of complications
- Tissue biopsy analyzed for bacterial and fungal culture, because bone infections may mimic a bone tumor
- Closed
- Less invasive and lower risk of tissue contamination with tumor cells
- Usually involves CT image-guided percutaneous biopsy
- Less risk of complications
- Less painful, and less costly
- Disadvantages, include: insufficient tissue from lesions and erroneous diagnosis of tumor grade
- Common bone and cartilage tumors biopsy findings, include:
- Anastomosing bony trabeculae
- Calcifications surrounded by cells nests
- Increased/decreased osteoblasts and osteoclasts
