Does liver biopsy accurately measure fibrosis in Fontan‐associated liver disease? A comparison of liver biopsy pre–combined heart and liver transplant and liver explant post‐transplant

Clinical Transplantation, 2020
The accuracy of liver biopsy to stage fibrosis due to Fontan‐associated liver disease (FALD) remains unclear. We compared the results of biopsy pre–combined heart and liver transplantation (CHLT) to the results of whole liver explant.

Liver Biopsy Techniques

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2009
A liver biopsy is required to make the diagnosis of most non-vascular liver diseases. Liver biopsy samples can be obtained with several techniques. With proper training and adequate operator experience, the liver biopsy is a safe technique. It is important to evaluate blood coagulation and to use the biopsy in the context of evaluation of the liver and

Transjugular liver biopsy: Comparison with percutaneous liver biopsy

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 1994
Abstract A transjugular liver biopsy was performed on 60 patients. Specimens were successfully obtained from 57 (95%) patients. Specimens obtained from cirrhotic patients were frequently small‐sized/fragmented. The wedge hepatic venous pressure and hepatic venous pressure gradient were higher in patients with small‐sized/fragmented specimens than those

NEEDLE BIOPSY OF THE LIVER

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1948
IT HAS been apparent for years that some aid must be found in making an early diagnosis of diseases of the liver, especially when there is minimal or moderate functional impairment. Employment of needle biopsy of the liver has been useful in this regard, and evidence is accumulating which indicates the value of this procedure.

Liver biopsy

Gastroentérologie Clinique et Biologique, 2008
Fibrosis, the excess deposition of extracellular matrix in the liver is a form of anatomical damage to the liver parenchyma, so that liver biopsy is the only approach for its direct assessment. Although liver biopsy has its limitations, appropriate precautions can reduce the flaws inherent in this method.

Transjugular Liver Biopsy

Hepatology, 1992
Although transjugular liver biopsy requires the availability of trained personnel, takes more time than percutaneous biopsy and is moderately expensive, it is a safe alternative technique for obtaining adequate liver tissue for diagnosis in special clinical situations. The usual indications for transjugular rather than percutaneous liver biopsy are (a)

Transjugular Liver Biopsy

Techniques in Vascular and Interventional Radiology, 2021
Transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB) was first performed in 1970 and has since become a standard procedure in interventional radiology practices. TJLB can be used when a percutaneous liver biopsy is contraindicated, such as patients with ascites, coagulopathy, congenital clotting disorders or for patients undergoing concurrent evaluation for portal ...

Liver Biopsy

Pediatrics, 1968
In the December issue of Pediatrics, Dr. Lucey discussed the usefulness of liver biopsy in the management of children with undiagnosed or complicated liver disease. He coneludes that in the proper hands liver biopsy can be a safe and helpful procedure. This is probably true. Any physician interested in acquiring this skill could, presumably, do so in a

Interpretation of Liver Biopsies

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1995
Liver biopsies help define the disease process and can assist the clinician in forming a prognosis. The small size of liver biopsy specimens and limited responses of the liver to a wide spectrum of injuries often do not allow for a specific etiologic diagnosis.

Percutaneous Liver Biopsy

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1967
The diagnosis of liver disease depends primarily on an adequate history and a physical examination. These should indicate the correct diagnosis in two thirds of the cases; the addition of liverfunction tests assists in the differentiation of hepatic disease.
