Popis: |
Under certain conditions a percutaneous liver biopsy cannot be carried out. In many of these patients transjugular liver biopsy is the correct option. We present our first hundred biopsies: in 92 cases a liver specimen was obtained; in 80 cases (87%) the tissue specimen allowed the histopathologic diagnosis; in five cases perforation of the hepatic capsule was observed, without producing hemoperitoneum. The mortality in our series was nil. In our experience and the revision of the literature, we consider that transvenous (transjugular) needle biopsy is an efficient and reliable procedure. |
