Subject: spongy bone marrow trephine.

Dear all,

We, the team of medical technologists & haematopathologist , are worried about the bone marrow trephine biopsies those get spongy appearance on slides.There is one thing of  prime importance that only one or two biopsies appear so out of a badge of ten or twelve biopsies.

What in your opinion could be the cause of this appearance ?

Thanks in advance,
