Transpedicular Percutaneous Vertebral Biopsy: About Six Cases
Journal Title: Journal of Health and Medical Sciences - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
The vertebral biopsy is the method of choice to confirm the diagnosis of localized infectious and tumoral lesions of the spine. It can be performed percutaneously or in the open. The percutaneous route has largely supplanted surgical biopsy with a minimally invasive spinal approach and diagnostic efficiency. The transpedicular biopsy is the most classic. We report our experience through a series of six cases of transpedicular vertebral biopsy collected during a two-year period in the neurosurgery department at Mohamed VI University Hospital in Oujda Morocco.
