Abstract
The aim is to analyze the data obtained during biopsy of primary and secondary lesions and pathological fractures of the cervical vertebrae and their influence on the tactics of treatment of patients. Evaluation of the effectiveness of biopsy of pathological processes in the cervical vertebrae.
Materials. The results of biopsies of 20 patients with lesions of the cervical vertebrae of unknown etiology or with the presence of pathological fractures with compression of the spinal cord and roots by a vertebra or a soft tissue component were analyzed.
The following results were obtained: the presence of a secondary lesion of the cervical vertebrae was revealed: metastatic nature – 10, primary tumors – 1, lymphoproliferative tumors – 3, no tumor lesion was detected – 3, not enough material for the study – 3.
Conclusion. The results obtained indicate the high efficiency and sufficient safety of puncture biopsy in diagnosing lesions of the cervical vertebrae, even in complex localizations (C2). Revealing the nature of vertebral lesions in the absence of absolute indications for decompression and stabilization interventions significantly affects the tactics and order of treatment of the patient.
