Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 1995
Muscle biopsy remains a critical component in the evaluation of myopathies. Recent literature demonstrates that percutaneous biopsy instruments can effectively procure muscle tissue for analysis in clinical and research settings. We review issues of muscle biopsy technique and specimen processing in the context of available clinical methods for tissue ...

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.

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

Muscle and Nerve Biopsies [PDF]
, 1988 The pathology of muscle and nerve is an important aspect of neuromuscular disease. Both muscle and nerve are readily accessible to biopsy; although many muscles can be biopsied the choice of nerve is restricted, since it is important that the procedure should not result in disability.

Muscle, nerve, and skin biopsy [PDF]
Neurologic Clinics, 2004 The diagnostic approach to neuromuscular disorders begins with clinical evaluation and electromyographic examination. The histology of the muscle, nerve, and skin are the subsequent essential steps in establishing the diagnosis.

Improved needle for muscle biopsy
Klinische Wochenschrift, 1974The 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.

Review of extraocular muscle biopsies and utility of biopsy in extraocular muscle enlargement
British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2018AimsTo 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 ...

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 ...

Journal of Musculoskeletal Pain, 1993
Objective: The study was initiated in order to see if muscle biopsy is helpful as a diagnostic test in fibromyalgia. Methods: Needle biopsies from the quadriceps muscle of the right thigh were obtained from 25 patients with fibromyalgia symptoms for a median of 11.5 uears and from 10 healthy age matched controls.
