  • Title: [Percutaneous fine needle biopsy of lymph nodes (author's transl)].
    Author: Rupp N, Rothenberger K, Bayer-Pietsch E, Feuerbach S, Esch U.
    Journal: Rofo; 1979 Mar; 130(3):328-31. PubMed ID: 155576.
    Abstract:
    Following lymphography, 76 lymph nodes were punctured percutaneously using a fine needle in 23 patients and an aspiration biopsy was performed. This simple procedure provided cytological comfirmation in cases of doubtful lymphograms. Systematic puncture of representative lymph nodes in the area of metastatic spread may at times be able to replace a staging operation.
