Intraoperative evaluation of the resection margin with the usage of digital two-point sectorography (Faxitron PathVision)

Background . Surgery is fundamental in complex and combined approach the treatment of early breast cancer. It a common fact, that absence tumor cells resection margin main indicator oncological safety breast-conserving surgery (BCS). The presence examined predictor local recurrence after BCS for Currently clinical need precise fast method intraoperative assessment status kept. Intraoperative evaluation with usage digital two-point sectorography (Faxitron PathVision) appeared as alternative to histological examination, providing optimum size information about adequacy carried out surgical treatment. Aim To evaluate diagnostic features Faxitron PathVision comparison planned histologic examination. Materials methods 368 conducted conservative surgeries were analyzed; patients divided two groups depending on neoadjuvant chemotherapy. first group included 236 patients, who didn't receive chemotherapy before surgery; second 132 received Subset analysis detection rate positive (R1) was X-ray device or without this method. After each assessed examination cells, subsequent frequency reoperations when R1 found. Results In tested specimens found 25 cases, which 6.8 %. From 20 8.5 %; from operations 5 (3.8 %) cases Reoperations performed 13 3 sub-group PathVision. Conclusions Assessing results our study we can make conclusion experience performing low (8.5 %).
