The aim was to optimize the biopsy to obtain as much material as possible so that we could get a diagnosis and have adequate material for molecular and genetic studies.
The video below discusses the case, how the biopsy was done and a review of two recent papers on this subject that discuss what factors affect the diagnostic success of a bone biopsy.
