Abstract :

Introduction: Biopsy is a prerequisite in the management of patient with soft tissue tumor. In the present study attempt has been made to find out usefulness and effectiveness of tru cut needle biopsy of soft tissue tumor and compared it with fine needle aspiration biopsy. The main objective of the study was to assess the accuracy of tru cut biopsy in correlation with fine needle aspiration biopsy of soft tissue tumor. Method: The study was conducted in Jagdalpur, the patients who either attended outpatient department or were admitted in the surgical wards as well as cancer wards of associated hospital of Medical college, for a period of one year. Total 43 patients were included in this study. Result: maximum number of the patients was between 31 – 40 years age group and minimum number of patients was in 81 –90 age group. Maximum number of males was in the age of 31 –40 years, and females were in the age of 21 –40 years. Benign lesions were diagnosed with100% accuracy but malignant lesions were diagnosed only 80.64% accurately. Over all accuracy for diagnosis of soft tissue tumor was 86.04%. All benign lesions were diagnosed accurately by fine needle aspiration biopsy. Conclusion: Tru cut biopsy is as accurate as conventional open biopsy for the diagnosis of soft tissue tumors. It is simpler to perform, less expensive and its use can help to prevent inappropriate initial management
