Overview
Objective:
To present our experience with ultrasound-guided minimally invasive bioptic techniques in gynecologic oncology.
Subject:
Original paper.
Setting:
Gynecological Oncology Center, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Charles University, First Faculty of Medicine and General Faculty Hospital, Prague.
Subject and method:
Minimally invasive ultrasound-guided biopsy may be done in patients with primary inoperable disease, suspicious recurrence of gynecological or non-gynecological malignancy or in case of diagnostic uncertainty of pelvic tumor origin.
Conclusion:
Ultrasound-guided minimally invasive bio-psy represents an accessible and relatively simple method useful in many indications, not only in gynecologic oncology.
