Abstract :

Introduction: Biopsy is a surgical procedure to obtain tissue from a living organism for it’s microscopically examination, usually to perform diagnosis. Soft tissue includes skin, fat muscle and tendons that surround connect and support other tissue or organs. Soft tissue biopsies require little time or involvement from the patient. The main objective of this study was to assess the histopathological accuracy of tissue obtained by tru cut needle in correlation with open biopsy of soft tissue tumor. Method: Total number of patients included in this study was 43 who either attended outpatient department or were admitted in the surgical wards as well as cancer wards of associated hospital of Medical college, Jagdalpur during the period from2018 –2019. The study was conducted for a period of one year with a presenting complains of tumor. Patients from 11 to 90 years of age group were included in this study. Informed consent was taken from the patients who were included in the study. Result: In this study maximum number of the patients was between 31 – 40 years age group and minimum number of patients was in 81 –90 age group. Both the sex was included. There were 24 males and 19 females. Tru cut biopsy report is more accurate than fine needle aspiration biopsy. Diagnosis of malignant lesions and specific for sarcoma is more accurate by Tru cut biopsy. Conclusion: Tru cut biopsy is a reliable method for histopathological examination of soft tissue tumors. It is accurate, simple, and less expensive and causes minimum trauma to the tissues.
