Abstract
Percutaneous needle biopsy of lymph nodes and abdominal masses was performed in 48 patients with abdominal lymphoma. A correct diagnosis was obtained in 15 of 28 biopsies performed on lymph nodes and in 17 of 25 abdominal masses or organs. The overall success rate was 64%. No false-positive diagnoses were rendered. No complications related to the procedure were encountered. The value of this technique in the management of selected patients with abdominal lymphoma is detailed.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
