Multicentricity and recurrence of breast cancer.
emerging technique of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) might be able to detect multiple foci of breast cancer in vivo. There is already evidence to this effect with the various forms of MRI mammography proving consistently better than traditional radiographic mammography in this respect. In our initial series of 45 patients with invasive breast cancer, dynamic MRI mammography detected multicent...
متن کاملRadioactive seed localization for non-palpable breast cancer.
BACKGROUND Radioactive seed localization (RSL) is an alternative to wire localization for guiding surgical excision of non-palpable breast cancer. This review provides an overview of the available evidence on the accuracy of RSL in patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery. METHODS PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library were searched systematically in January 2012 for studies that addres...
متن کاملNeedle localization of non-palpable breast lesions.
Screening mammography identifies suspicious, non palpable mammary lesions. Mammographic needle localization (MNL) is currently being used to facilitate excision biopsy of these lesions. Thirty-two patients underwent biopsies of the breast after MNL for non-palpable lesions. Mammographic indications for biopsy consisted of microcalcifications (48%), mass or abnormal density (21%) or mass+abnorma...
متن کاملA developmental hypothesis to explain the multicentricity of breast cancer.
In this article the author proposes that the multicentricity of breast cancer might be explained by a developmental hypothesis. Genetic alterations ("hits") occurring in epithelial stem cells during the development of the breast may be transmitted to populations of daughter cells during growth. As a result, areas of the breast may be predisposed to malignant transformation with the occurrence o...
متن کاملMultifocality and multicentricity in breast cancer and survival outcomes.
BACKGROUND The clinicopathological characteristics and the prognostic significance of multifocal (MF) and multicentric (MC) breast cancers are not well established. PATIENTS AND METHODS MF and MC were defined as more than one lesion in the same quadrant or in separate quadrants, respectively. The Kaplan-Meier product limit was used to calculate recurrence-free survival (RFS), breast cancer-sp...
