Depends on situation: Probably not. Most biopsies can be done under local anesthesia (numbing medicine) injected near the site. For patients who are extremely anxious, medications such as versed or Xanax (alprazolam) can be given in advance. Endotracheal tube anesthesia usually is only needed for more extensive surgery where muscle relaxation is needed.

No: This procedure can be done with light sedation and local anesthesia . Talk to your anesthesiologist about the operation before surgery.
