Best Practices : CT-Guided Percutaneous Sampling of Vertebral Discitis-Osteomyelitis and Technical Factors Maximizing Biopsy Yield
Vertebral discitis-osteomyelitis is an infection of the intervertebral disk and vertebral bodies that may extend to adjacent paraspinal and epidural soft tissues. Its incidence is increasing, likely because of improved treatments and increased life expectancy for patients with predisposing chronic disease and increased rates of IV drug use and intravascular intervention. Because blood cultures are frequently negative in patients with vertebral discitis-osteomyelitis, biopsy is often indicated to identify a causative microorganism for targeted antimicrobial therapy. The reported yield of CT-guided percutaneous sampling is 31-91%, which is lower than the reported yield of open biopsy of 76-91%. However, the less invasive approach may be favored given its relative safety and low cost. If paravertebral fluid collections are present, CT-guided aspiration should be performed. If aspiration is unsuccessful or no paravertebral fluid collections are present, CT-guided percutaneous biopsy should be performed, considering technical factors (e.g., anatomic approach, needle selection, and needle angulation) that may improve microbiologic yield. Although antimicrobial therapy should be withheld for 1-2 weeks before biopsy if clinically feasible, biopsy may still be performed without stopping antimicrobial therapy if needed. Because of the importance of targeted antimicrobial therapy, repeat biopsy should be considered after 72 hours if initial biopsy does not identify a pathogen.
