Abstract
Our study showed that in 97% of suitable cases, CNB provided sufficient diagnostic information to allow treatment of malignant lymphoma to be instigated. This minimally-invasive technique is well tolerated and has advantages over surgical techniques, including reduced costs, post-procedural complications and delays on the diagnostic pathway. CNB may obviate the use of surgical techniques in the majority of suitable cases, however its success is dependent on close collaboration and acceptance by clinicians and pathologists.
