Muscle and nerve biopsy

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2002
Biopsy of muscle and nerve is an essential component of the diagnostic plan for animals with suspected neuromuscular disease. This article includes descriptions of the biopsy procedures and information regarding appropriate biopsy site selection and correct handling and processing of the tissues.

Needle Muscle Biopsy

JCR: Journal of Clinical Rheumatology, 1997
We review our experience with needle muscle biopsy, including technique, results, complications, and outcome. We have collected data from 40 consecutive patients undergoing needle muscle biopsy of the quadriceps muscle. All biopsies were performed by the same operator and 98% were performed in the outpatient clinic. Specimens were sent to pathology for

Fetal Muscle Biopsy

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 1983
Abstract. Fetal muscle specimens suitable for histological and histochemical studies were obtained under fetoscopic visualization by removing a small piece of skin, thereby exposing the underlying muscle. The procedure was carried out in 7 cases prior to second‐trimester abortion.

Improved needle for muscle biopsy

Klinische Wochenschrift, 1974
The authors describe a muscle biopsy needle which has some technical advantages, as compared with existing types, i.e. the possibility to select the collecting tip according to individual conditions, prompt cutting by means of a spring mechanism. A total of 97 muscle biopsies were performed from the m.

Muscle Biopsy

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1985
Muscle biopsy is often incorrectly performed despite the fact that it is a relatively simple procedure. A consistently reproducible surgical technique in 93 open vastus lateralis muscle biopsies implemented in conjunction with neuromuscular and malignant hyperthermia research demonstrated 14 cases of malignant hyperthermia and a variety of forms of ...

The utility of muscle biopsy

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2004
Despite major advances in molecular genetics, histopathologic evaluation of muscle biopsy specimens continues to provide important diagnostic information in patients with suspected muscle diseases and in patients with vasculitic neuropathies. Muscle biopsy specimens are used in diagnosing many inherited as well as inflammatory and toxic myopathies ...

Skeletal Muscle Biopsy

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice
Muscle biopsy is often required to provide a definitive diagnosis for neuromuscular disorders and can be performed using open surgical or percutaneous needle biopsy techniques. Fresh samples that are subsequently frozen in the laboratory are preferred by laboratories engaged in research, whereas formalin-fixed muscle is processed by diagnostic ...

Review of extraocular muscle biopsies and utility of biopsy in extraocular muscle enlargement

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2018
AimsTo review the distribution of pathology in extraocular muscle (EOM) biopsies performed at a tertiary orbital centre, identify clinical and imaging features which are associated with benign or malignant diseases and indicate when biopsy is necessary for EOM enlargement.MethodsRetrospective case series including 93 patients with EOM enlargement who ...

External Intercostal Muscle Biopsy

Archives of Neurology, 1975
• External intercostal muscle biopsies were performed on 36 patients with neuromuscular disease, 13 patients undergoing thoracotomy for other diseases, and 3 healthy volunteers. The procedure is safe, of diagnostic value, and uniquely useful as a research tool, as it allows correlation of results of histochemical, ultrastructural, physiological ...

Diagnostic significance of the muscle biopsy

The American Journal of Medicine, 1958
Abstract 1.1. A retrospective evaluation of the value of the random skeletal muscle biopsy at the Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center in the eleven year period from 1946 through 1956 is reported. 2.2. The changes seen on examination of muscle tissue were of value in diagnosis in some patients with sarcoidosis, polyarteritis and trichinosis.
