Isolated radial scar diagnosis by core-needle biopsy: Is surgical excision necessary?
PURPOSE Radial scar and radial sclerosis (RS) are considered benign breast lesions with proliferative features. There is sparse literature on frequency of cancer upgrade in these patients without atypical features found on image-guided needle biopsy. This study retrospectively reviews cases of isolated RS diagnosed on needle biopsy and evaluates the cancer upgrade after subsequent surgical exci...
متن کاملColumnar cell lesions on breast needle biopsies: is surgical excision necessary? A systematic review.

Here we report two cases of radial scar with different clinical approaching strategies. We pose two questions based on the inconsistency between these two cases and review recent studies to come up with some reasonable answers. The first question ...
متن کاملTransthoracic image guided biopsy.
Transthoracic image guided biopsy is now firmly established in the armamentarium of diagnostic tests to establish the nature of a mass in the lung, pleura, mediastinum or chest wall. It may be performed under computed tomographic, ultrasonic or fluoroscopic control, and provided a fine needle technique is employed, morbidity is low. Worldwide reports show a 90% true positive yield and a false p...
متن کاملPET-guided breast biopsy.
Molecular imaging, using positron emission tomography (PET), has become an integral step in the evaluation of many patients with malignancy. However, its use in patients with breast cancer has been limited by the lower levels of (18) F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in some breast malignancies compared to other cancers, the small size of many breast cancers, and the need for biopsy under PET g...
