- W2012905908 abstract "Background: Biopsy of musculoskeletal tumours is hazardous and, when poorly performed, can compromise limb salvage surgery and patient survival. The aim of the present paper is to examine the early management of such patients referred to the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney, Australia with particular reference to biopsy. Methods: We conducted a prospective audit of all patients referred to our musculoskeletal tumour service during 2002. Inclusion criteria were: all patients with primary tumours of the musculoskeletal system. We compared the outcome of patients biopsied prior to referral with that of patients biopsied in a recognized treatment centre. Results: One hundred and forty-two patients were included. The referring surgeon performed biopsies in 29 cases, of which 20 were malignant lesions. The senior author biopsied the remaining 113 cases, of which 57 were malignant. Definitive treatment was hindered by a badly performed biopsy in 38% of patients biopsied by the referring surgeon. In 25% the definitive treatment had to be changed either to a more radical procedure than would have originally been necessary or to palliative rather than curative intent. Patients biopsied elsewhere were more likely to have an incomplete excision requiring re-excision, more likely to require amputation, and more likely to require adjuvant radiotherapy. Conclusions: There is a high complication rate when patients with musculoskeletal tumours are biopsied by surgeons inexperienced in their management. These patients are better served by early referral to a specialist centre where staging investigations including biopsy can be performed with minimal morbidity." @default.
