BACKGROUND Transseptal puncture is a critical step in achieving left atrial (LA) access for a variety of cardiac procedures. Although the mechanical Brockenbrough needle has historically been used for this procedure, a needle employing radiofrequency (RF) energy has more recently been approved for clinical use. We sought to investigate the comparative effectiveness of an RF versus conventional ...
Thyroid large needle aspiration biopsy is disregarded because it is thought to be associated with pain. This is in contrast with our 32 years long experience. We surveyed reports of pain in patients examined with fine needle aspiration biopsy (78, 87.2% women, mean age 59 years) or FNAB+large needle aspiration biopsy (48, 87.5% women, mean age 60 years). Each patient was questioned regarding a)...
Introduction: Despite the popularity of needle biopsy for obtaining tissue samples in several solid organs, its use in thoracic lesions has been very restricted in some hospitals. This study intended to investigate the CT-Guided transthoracic core needle biopsy specimens in Yazd Shahid Sadoughi hospital during 2001- 2010.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the consequences of needle transposition from the placenta during amniocentesis. Materials and methods: In a cohort...
Needle insertion into soft tissue is one of the most common medical interventions. This study provides macroscopic and microscopic observations of needle-gel interactions. A gelatin mixture is used as a soft-tissue simulant. For the macroscopic studies, system parameters, such as insertion velocity, needle diameter, gel elasticity, needle tip shape (including bevel angle) and insertion motion p...
purpose : fine needle aspiration (fna) cytologic findings of langerhans cell histiocytosis (lch) have been well described, but using this method in the diagnosis of orbital lesions is a recent experience. we hereby report two cases of orbital bone lch diagnosed by fna that later was confirmed by routine h&e; histopathology and immunohistochemistry (ihc) methods. case reports : the first case wa...
in riedel’s thyroiditis, a rare chronic inflammatory disease of thyroid gland, fine needle aspiration is usually non-diagnostic because most often only follicular cells are obtained and not the fibrous material characteristic of this type of thyroiditis. therefore the diagnosis is often only established by histopathologic study of the surgically obtained biopsy. the illustrated case is a 46-yea...
background and objective: fine needle aspiration cytology (fnac) is well accepted as a useful diagnostic technique in the management of adult patients with head and neck lumps. but, until recently, very few reports have been obtained regarding the role of fnac in nonthyroidal neck masses in children. hence, the objective of our study was to determine the diagnostic value of fine needle aspirati...
