Transosseous air contrast CT-guided needle biopsy of a cystic neoplasm.
CT-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy of a metastasis from an ovarian cystadenocarcinoma was performed using air contrast and a transosseous approach. Air contrast allowed identification of a papillary projection within the cyst, and the transosseous approach permitted direct and easy access to the lesion.
