Background And Aims: Despite the undeniable ongoing development of cross-sectional imaging methods, not all focal liver lesions (FLLs) have a typical pattern. An image-guided biopsy using a percutaneous approach might safely provide a final histological diagnosis of the FLLs. We aimed to evaluate the accuracy, efficiency, complication rate, technical features, and relationships between the followed parameters of computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous biopsies of FLLs using a retrospective approach.

To evaluate the accuracy, efficiency, complication rate, technical features, and relations among followed parameters of CT-guided percutaneous biopsies of the pelvic lesions. 140 biopsies in 136 patients for tumors, sizes 17-160 mm in largest diameter, were carried out in patients with probable tumorous pelvic process within ten years period. The patients were women in 77 cases and men in 59 cases, aged 21 to 87 years.

Aims: To retrospectively evaluate the technical features, efficacy, accuracy, appropriate complications, and relationships among monitored parameters of computed tomography-guided biopsies of the retroperitoneum-located processes.

Methods: From December 2008 to December 2018, 208 percutaneous biopsy procedures for tumors, sized 14 - 190 mm in diameter (median size 57.5 mm), were performed on patients with suspected retroperitoneal tumorous process on imaging examinations.
