The Role of Bone Marrow Aspiration and Bone Marrow Biopsy in Diagnosis of Bone Marrow Metastases

Background: Bone marrow is the site of many malignant disorders and it is one of the common places for solid tumors to metastasize. Examination of the bone marrow aspirate and biopsy is a routine procedure performed for assessment of various conditions such as cytopenias, hematologic neoplasms, nonmalignant disorders and metastatic neoplasms. Methods: The patients were referred to the Hema...

Leaders Bone marrow aspiration

Bone marrow aspiration biopsies are carried out principally to permit cytological assessment but also for immunophenotypic, cytogenetic, molecular genetic, and other specialised investigations. Often, a trephine biopsy is carried out as part of the same procedure. Bone marrow aspirations should be carried out by trained individuals who are aware of the indications, contraindications, and hazard...

A technic of bone marrow transplantation in man.

LTHOUGH ATTEMPTS have been made in the past to treat certain hematologic disorders, notably aplastic anemia, by means of bone marrow infusions,1’2 their uniform lack of success led to a neglect of this procedure until recently. The current revival of interest in this form of therapy has grown out of a series of animal experiments indicating that homologous, even heterologous, bone marrow transp...

Comparison of bone marrow aspiration cytology with bone marrow trephine biopsy histopathology: An observational study

INTRODUCTION Bone marrow examination is a useful investigative tool for the diagnosis of many hematological and nonhematological disorders. Bone marrow aspiration (BMA) provides information about the numerical and cytological features of marrow cells, whereas bone marrow trephine biopsies (BMB) provide excellent appreciation of spatial relationships between cells and of overall bone marrow stru...
