Abstract：Objective To explore the value of ultrasound-guided core needle biopsy of lymph nodes in the diagnosis and classification of lymphoma.Methods A total of 131 suspected lymphoma patients admitted to Jiangsu Cancer Hospital from January 2022 to December 2023 were retrospectively collected and divided into two groups according to sampling methods:ultrasound biopsy group and surgical biopsy group,including 64 cases in the ultrasound biopsy group and 67 cases in the surgical biopsy group.The pathological diagnosis results,total diagnostic accuracy and adverse reactions were compared between the ultrasound biopsy group and the surgical excision biopsy group.At the same time,the diagnostic efficacy of ultrasonic puncture biopsy group and surgical resection biopsy group for different sites of non-Hodgkin lymphoma was analyzed,and the diagnostic efficacy of ultrasonic puncture biopsy group for different sizes of lymphoma was compared within the group.Results There was no significant difference in the total diagnostic accuracy of first sampling between the ultrasound biopsy group and the surgical excision biopsy group(P>0.05).There were 55 cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma and 3 cases of Hodgkin lymphoma in the ultrasound biopsy group,and 3 cases of Hodgkin lymphoma and 56 cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma in the surgical resection biopsy group,with no statistical significance between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the diagnosis rate of superficial non-Hodgkin lymphoma between the ultrasound biopsy group and the surgical biopsy group(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the diagnosis rate of deep non-Hodgkin lymphoma between the ultrasound biopsy group and the surgical biopsy group(P>0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions in the ultrasound biopsy group was significantly different from that in the surgical resection biopsy group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in diagnostic rate among the 4 subgroups in the ultrasound biopsy group(P>0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided lymph node coarse needle biopsy is helpful for the diagnosis and classification of lymphoma,and the operation is relatively simple and fast,with high safety,which is suitable for widely used in clinical diagnosis of lymphoma.
