“…To address this limitation, core needle biopsy (CNB) was developed and has gained substantial popularity in recent years. Compared to FNAB, CNB provides a superior sample for histologic examination of the lesion, especially for immunohistochemical evaluation . Previous studies have shown that US‐guided CNB has a higher success rate for obtaining adequate specimens than FNAB …”

Purpose of this study: systematic analysis of the data available in the modern scientific medical literature on contemporary aspects of the diagnosis, staging and differential treatment tactics of patients with epithelial ovarian tumors. Research method used in this article is the systematic analysis of the medical literature, both domestic and western. Results. This article attempts to summarize the experience of modern medicine and the world’s leading centers for the fight against ovarian cancer of epithelial origin and offer solutions relevant to everyday clinical practice. Problems of the modern classification of forms of the disease are described in detail; description of instrumental diagnostic methods also is given in thus article; problem of lack of effective proved themselves in clinical practice of screening methods also was disccused; and, thus, current understanding of the disease staging and differential tactics for treatment of patients are given. Conclusion. One of the most important directions of development of gynecological oncology is a decision the existing problems related to the diagnosis and treatment of ovarian cancer: namely, the development of effective screening programs, improving diagnosis and therapy methods, the development of measures of postoperative management of patients with ovarian cancer, including medical rehabilitation measures.

“…In a study conducted by Volpi et al, one false-negative histological evaluation and one inadequate sample were without major complications (3,5). Obviously, we recommend this approach only for the advanced stages of ovarian cancer to avoid tumor spillage by any diagnostic sampling method of ovarian carcinoma.…”

“…Although it is necessary to obtain definite diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma, needle aspiration of malignant cells in ascetic fluid is an acceptable method, but tissue diagnosis is preferable. However, the risk of untreatable abdominal wall metastasis in both procedures is reported (3). In order to obtain acceptable accurate tissue biopsy and to avoid the dissemination of tumor in needle insertion site, transvaginal ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy appears to be a suitable method with low risk of iatrogenic intra-peritoneal dissemination (4).…”

Is Transvaginal Core Needle Biopsy A Safe Method in Diagnosis of Ovarian Cancer?

Background: The optimal management of highly invasive ovarian cancer has changed from adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery to neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery. Generally, tissue specimen for definitive diagnosis of ovarian malignancy is necessary. However, abdominal wall metastasis is a complication, known as transabdominal ascites aspiration or percutaneous core needle biopsy. When neoadjuvant chemotherapy is indicated, transvaginal core needle biopsy under sonographic guidance provided enough tissue specimens. In addition, resection of most of upper vaginal wall during surgery prevents needle site metastasis. The aim of this study is to evaluate transvaginal core needle biopsy as a safe method for diagnosis of ovarian cancer. Methods: This clinical trial study was performed on patients who were candidate for neoadjuvant chemotherapy and were referred to gynecology oncology department of Ghaem hospital, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences during 2014 to 2015. Results: Twelve women with a presumptive diagnosis of stage III c or IV ovarian cancer were selected. Adequate sample was obtained by transvaginal core needle biopsy, and cancer diagnosis was confirmed in all cases. This procedure resulted in optimal debulking surgery in 2 /3 of cases. Conclusions: Transvaginal core needle biopsy is a safe diagnostic method of ovarian cancer.
