What is a Bone Marrow Biopsy


Underlying Problem Requiring a Bone Marrow Biopsy: Doctors perform biopsies to examine patients. tissues for any number of reasons. A bone marrow biopsy can be utilized to test for many different conditions such as leukemia, anemia, pancytopenia, multiple myeloma, genetic abnormalities, and more. Bone marrow is the factory where the building blocks of blood (red and white blood cells, platelets, etc.) are made. Treatment: In order to learn more about what is going on inside a patient, doctors must sometime collect tissue samples. In the case of bone marrow, this is done using two procedures. Oftentimes, both an aspiration and a bone marrow biopsy will be performed. To do the biopsy, the patient lies either on the stomach or one side before a local anesthetic is injected. It is common for the procedure to be performed in a patient's hip. The aspiration will usually be done first, with a needle being inserted through the skin and through the bone into the bone marrow cavity. A syringe is then used to suck out some of the marrow. The bone marrow biopsy follows. This utilizes a trephine needed that is actually anchored to the hard outer shell of the bone. The needle is moved forward using a twisting motion that causes it to drill into the marrow, removing a solid cylinder of bone marrow measuring about two millimeters by two centimeters. The entire bone marrow biopsy procedure should take approximately ten to fifteen minutes, although it will be some time before the tissue has been analyzed and results are available. Recovery from a Bone Marrow Biopsy: Recovery from a bone marrow biopsy is relatively quick. Immediately after the procedure is performed, patients are asked to remain on the table or bed for five to ten minutes while pressure is applied to the site. If there is no unexpected bleeding, then the patient will generally be free to go about regular daily activities. There will probably soreness for two or three days after a bone marrow biopsy, so some pain relievers may be prescribed.
