this is a reason why biopsies can Create further problems

[CancerQuest]

This is something that doctors and researchers are aware of. It does happen, but it seems to be fairly rare. As with anymedical procedure, there it is important for patients to do a cost-benefit analysis. Usually, knowing whether a growth is cancerous is very important information and, unfortunately, sometimes only biopsies can provide that information.
