Is it dangerous for the elderly to do a bone marrow biopsy?

Lumbar puncture is of decisive significance for the diagnosis of intracranial diseases such as meningitis and encephalitis. In order to prevent and treat meningeal leukemia, children with leukemia also need regular lumbar puncture and injection of specific drugs. Lumbar puncture is performed under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, and the puncture needle is generally approached through the lumbar 3-4 intervertebral disc. In principle, the elderly over 82 years old can, but those with contraindications cannot.
