Imprint cytology on microcalcifications excised by Vacuum-Assisted Breast Biopsy: A rapid preliminary diagnosis
BACKGROUND To evaluate imprint cytology in the context of specimens with microcalcifications derived from Vacuum-Assisted Breast Biopsy (VABB). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 93 women with microcalcifications BI-RADS 3 and 4 underwent VABB and imprint samples were examined. VABB was performed on Fischer's table using 11-gauge Mammotome vacuum probes. A mammogram of the cores after the proced...
متن کاملVacuum-assisted stereotactic breast biopsy in the diagnosis and management of suspicious microcalcifications.
PURPOSE We aimed to present our biopsy method and retrospectively evaluate the results, upgrade rate, and follow-up findings of stereotactic vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (VABB) procedures performed in our clinic. METHODS Two hundred thirty-four patients with mammographically detected nonpalpable breast lesions underwent VABB using a 9 gauge biopsy probe and prone biopsy table. A total of 195...

PURPOSE To present the initial Greek experience with vacuumassisted breast biopsy (VABB) in the diagnosis of nonpalpable solid mammographic lesions without microcalcifications. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed 83 VABB procedures (using a Fischer table and 11-guage Mammotome probes) in an 18- month period on women with nonpalpable solid breast tumors. We performed VABB procedures on women wi...
متن کاملVacuum-assisted breast biopsy: a critical review.
Vacuum-assisted biopsy is an image-guided technique introduced in 1995 that is thought to be superior to 14G automated-needle biopsy for the evaluation of non-palpable breast lesions. However, prospective randomised studies evaluating its accuracy are unavailable. We conducted a critical review of the currently available literature on the accuracy of vacuum-assisted biopsy and compared it with ...
متن کاملUS-Guided Vacuum-Assisted Biopsy of Microcalcifications in Breast Lesions and Long-Term Follow-Up Results
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the use of an ultrasonography (US)-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy for microcalcifications of breast lesions and to evaluate the efficacy of the use of US-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy with long-term follow-up results. MATERIALS AND METHODS US-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy cases of breast lesions that were performed between 2002 and 2006 for micr...
