The results of 193 transjugular liver biopsies performed with a modified needle are described. An adequate specimen was obtained in 97%, and complications were rare, although puncture of the liver capsule does occur and caused bleeding in two patients. Fever after the procedure was reduced by ultrasonic cleaning of the needle. Although not easy, this technique is safe and preferable in the management of selected patients, but in most patients percutaneous biopsy is to be preferred.
本文描述了使用改良针进行的193例经颈静脉肝活检的结果。97%的病例获得了足够的标本，并发症罕见，尽管确实发生了肝包膜穿刺，导致两名患者出血。术后发热通过对针进行超声清洁而减少。尽管该技术并不容易，但在特定患者的管理中是安全且更可取的，但在大多数患者中，经皮活检更受青睐。
