Overview
Aim:
We evaluated the histological outcomes of small renal mass biopsy at the Department of Urology University Hospital Ostrava.
Methods:
Over the course of one year we have performed 42 intraoperative biopsies and 14 computed tomography-guided percutaneous biopsies. In collaboration with the pathologist, we compared the biopsy results with the histological findings following nephrectomy.
Results:
In intraoperative biopsies, the accurate histological diagnosis was achieved in 83% of patients compared to evaluation of the whole nephrectomy specimen. In CT-guided biopsies, the accurate diagnosis was obtained in 85%.
Conclusion:
This is a small sample size, but according to the results, we suggest that small renal mass biopsy may be beneficial.
Key words:
tumor biopsy, renal tumor, renal cell carcinoma therapy.
