Does Biopsy 'stimulate' metastasis?

Oct 26, 2022

① Generally, the needle for tumor puncture is small (generally 0.4 ~ 0.7 mm), and the trauma to normal tissues and tumors is small.

② Puncture examination time is very short, once the diagnosis results appear, the doctor will immediately take corresponding treatment measures. The cancer cells didn't have time to metastasize.

③ The puncture site is generally far away from the larger blood vessels, generally will not cause cancer cells into the blood.

According to the Chinese Expert Consensus on Chest Tumor Biopsy released in 2018, puncture can reduce the probability of misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis, which plays an important role in subsequent treatment. For lung cancer, for example, imaging tests show only shadows and small nodules, so a more accurate diagnosis requires a sample of living tumor cells.

So puncture is very important in the diagnosis and treatment of tumors. Don't listen to rumors and resist a needle biopsy.

Precautions before and after puncture

Generally speaking, the patient undergoing puncture is already between tumor and malignant tumor, and some patients have been hospitalized. Generally, the doctor will carry out a detailed epidemiological examination on the patient, and give professional opinions and suggestions whether there are other underlying diseases or how to treat the next step. Patients only need to keep themselves informed of their health.
