Abstract :
This study evaluates the role of CT-guided biopsy in diagnosing primary bone tumors, specifically focusing on its efficacy in determining lesion nature, establishing definitive diagnoses, and aiding treatment decisions. We present a case of a 38-year-old female with severe left leg and lumbar pain, where imaging revealed an ill-defined expansile lytic sclerotic lesion in the left iliac bone and acetabulum, suggestive of chondrosarcoma. A CT-guided biopsy was performed, utilizing a Jamshidi needle to obtain tissue samples for histopathological examination. The biopsy confirmed a diagnosis of Chondrosarcoma (Grade 1/2). The procedure demonstrated advantages such as precise needle positioning, minimal risk to surrounding structures, and overall safety. CT-guided biopsy proves to be a valuable tool in diagnosing bone lesions, facilitating accurate treatment planning, and providing essential prognostic information for affected patients.
