A 60 year old female patient underwent an ear piercing using a bone marrow aspiration needle. The ear piercing using this needle will help in reducing the cost to the patient in accessing the expert care at a lower cost. The advantages we noticed while using the bone marrow aspiration needle over conventional methods were more easily adapted and replicated.
