Objective: In the last decades, liver biopsy was the reference procedure for the diagnosis and follow-up of liver disease. Aim of present retrospective analysis was to assess the prevalence of complications and risk factors after Percutaneous Liver Biopsy (PLB) performed for diagnosis and staging in patients with chronic liver disease and for monitoring the graft in liver transplanted patients Patients and methods: Data were collected from a total of 1.011 PLB performed with the Menghini technique between January 2004 and December 2014 at the Hepatology and Transplant Units of the University of Rome Tor Vergata. The indications for biopsy were: follow-up of liver transplantation, chronic Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) or Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), with or without Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and alcohol-related liver disease. Our patients were divided into two groups according to the biopsy indication: follow-up of liver transplantation (Group A) and chronic liver disease (Group B). All the procedures were performed in Day Hospital regimen. After the biopsy, patients remained in bed for about 4-6 hours. In the absence of complications, they were then discharged on the same day. Results: The most frequent complication after biopsy was pain (Group A n. 57, 8.8%; Group B n. 105, 29.0%), hypotension as a result of a vasovagal reaction resolved spontaneously (Group A n. 7, 1.1%; Group B n. 6, 1.7%), and intrahepatic bleeding resolved with conservative therapy (Group A n. 1, 0.2%; Group B n. 6, 1.7%). Two cases of pneumothorax in the Group A (0.3%) were treated with a chest tube. Other complications did not have a significant impact. Also, we did not observe statistically significant differences in patients who underwent PLB without and with ultrasound guidance. Conclusions: Liver biopsy is not a replaceable tool in diagnosis and follow-up of several chronic liver diseases. The Menghini technique with the percutaneous trans costal approach, might be preferred because less traumatic and related with a low occurrence of ... |
