[Contribution in oncology of fine needle puncture-aspiration of abdominal organs under echographic guidance in real time. Apropos of 265 cases].
The authors report a 3-year experience in the field of real-time ultrasonically-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsies of abdominal lesions in a Cancer Institution. The procedure is performed using a linear-array electronic biopsy transducer. Results obtained in a series of 265 aspirations are analyzed. Major benefits and applications of this technique in oncology are discussed while emphasis is put on the economical aspects of this diagnostic "shunt".
