Computed Tomography-guided Percutaneous Pelvic Bone Biopsy: Technical Success, Diagnostic Performance, and Safety
Öz
Objective: To evaluate the technical success, diagnostic performance, and complications of CT-guided pelvic bone biopsies.
Material and Method: Fifty patients (32 women, 18 men; mean age: 57.5 ± 15.5 years; range: 20–91) who underwent CT-guided pelvic bone biopsy (sacrum, ilium, ischium, pubis, proximal femur) between 2017 and 2024 were included. Biopsies were performed by interventional radiologists with a minimum of five years of experience. Lesion size, location, type (lytic, sclerotic, or mixed), pathology results, technical success, diagnostic performance, and complications were recorded from patient files and the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS). Complications were classified as minor or major according to the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) guidelines.
Results: Technical success was 100% (50/50). Pathology revealed malignancy in 25 (50%) patients, benignity in 15 (30%), and nondiagnostic results in 10 (20%), yielding a diagnostic performance of 80%. Nondiagnostic lesions were significantly smaller than malignant (p=0.002) and benign (p<0.001) ones. Lesion types were lytic in 16 (32%), sclerotic in 17 (34%), and mixed in 17 (34%) cases. When pathology results were grouped as diagnostic (malignant or benign) vs. nondiagnostic, a significant association was found with lesion type (p=0.025); 70% of nondiagnostic lesions were sclerotic. Minor complications occurred in 5 (10%) patients, including moderate pain (n=2), transient hypotension (n=1), ecchymosis (n=1), and localized iliopsoas hematoma (n=1). No major complications were observed.
Conclusion: CT-guided pelvic bone biopsy is a safe procedure with high technical success and diagnostic yield. Smaller and sclerotic lesions are more likely to result in nondiagnostic outcomes.
