Possible complications of an open biopsy include infection or pneumothorax. If the patient has very severe breathing problems before the biopsy, breathing may be further impaired following the operation.
The percentage of deaths associated with CT-guided biopsy is very low, estimated to be less than 0.1%. This procedure is generally considered safe and complications are rare, but like any medical procedure, there are risks involved. It is important for patients to discuss these risks with their healthcare provider before undergoing a CT-guided biopsy.
Needle biopsy for a lung biopsy carries certain risks, including pneumothorax (collapsed lung), bleeding, infection, and damage to surrounding structures such as blood vessels or the diaphragm. Pneumothorax is the most common complication, occurring in about 20-30% of cases, but is usually minor and resolves on its own. Bleeding can occur during or after the procedure, but is typically minimal. Infection is rare but possible, and can be treated with antibiotics if it occurs.
A liver biopsy can be performed a few different ways: a needle can be inserted through the skin, and take a sample of the liver; during abdominal surgery, a piece of the liver may be removed; through blood vessels, a sample of the liver may be taken. the live sample would then be taken to be studied under a microscope.
i wouldn't do it. there are too many risks.
Infection and bleeding occur rarely after skin biopsy. If the skin biopsy may leave a scar, the patient usually is asked to give informed consent before the test.
Prostate biopsy performed with a needle is a low-risk procedure. There are a few risks associated with this procedure. One is an infection of the prostate gland. An antibiotic such as Levofloxacin 500mg will be prescribed to be taken before and after the procedure. If you experience chills or fever within 3 days of the procedure you should seek immediate medical aid. You may get some minor rectal bleeding, but this will go away in a day or so.
