Abstract
Central review of bone marrow trephine biopsies obtained between January 1990 and July 1996 from 282 children with neuroblastoma showed that 18% of cores from older children and an unacceptably high 36% from infants were inadequate (p = 0.0002). Centres should choose their operators for this invasive investigation of infants with more care in order to reduce the failure rate.Entities:
