Welcome to the network, Sam.
I've heard several first-hand anecdotes of biopsies that have gone wrong in various ways, and I was wondering what your professional experience has been. How often does it happen that a hemorrhage occurs, or a urethra is pierced, or similar misfortune occur - once in a hundred times? once in a thousand?

Hi Sam! Great to have you. The subject of biopsies comes up ALL the time. You may want to join the Biopsy and Other Tests, Primary Issues, and any other group that seems interesting to you. If you can also please load in a photo. See you online!
