Tumors of the abdominal and retroperitoneal organs are a significant problem in the structure of oncopathology due to the complexity of the differential diagnosis of benign and malignant neoplasms. The diagnosis of most malignant neoplasms is established based on the results of pathomorphological studies.
Trephine biopsy of neoplasms of the abdominal cavity or retroperitoneal space is the most progressive minimally invasive manipulation, which allows obtaining histological material and avoiding diagnostic surgery. The procedure is performed under the control of ultrasound / CT / MRI, local anesthesia, using a needle of a larger diameter, with a cutting edge - trephine.
Before starting the biopsy, the doctor should look at pre-manipulation CT / MRI scans to plan the insertion site and guide the needle, and select the correct navigation method. Most often, trephine biopsy is carried out under the control of ultrasound, but also in Ukraine, the practice of conducting the procedure using CT / MRI navigation is widespread.
The patient is placed in a certain position for the convenience of the procedure. The puncture site is treated with an antiseptic solution and local anesthesia is performed. Next, the doctor inserts the needle into a specific place. At the end of the examination, the specialist removes the needle and applies a bandage to the puncture site.
One of the most "difficult" is a trephine biopsy of the pancreas since it is located deeply and is very well supplied with blood. Also, an exception to the rule is a trephine biopsy of the prostate, which is performed transrectally by a urologist using ultrasound.
The average duration of the procedure is 30 minutes.
The cost of a trephine biopsy of neoplasms of the abdominal cavity or retroperitoneal space at the Dobrobut clinic in Kyiv is lower than the traditional surgical method of taking samples, while the procedure is more informative.
