[Value and limitations of puncture guided by x-ray computed tomography in hematology].
Interpretable cytologic data were obtained in 63% of a series of 68 punctures, for biopsy of hematologic affections, guided by CT scanning. The frequency of puncture of post-therapy residual masses (44 cases) explains the high incidence of non-significant examination results after lymph node puncture. The technique was most effective (78% of punctures exploitable) when used for thoracic masses and visceral localizations. The method is very safe: lack of serious incidents and minor reactions, mainly during thoracic puncture, in only 4.4%. The method is simple in use and should be employed, within certain limits that should be recognized, very widely in hematologic diseases.
