Random Periareolar Fine-Needle Aspiration: The New Pap Smear of the Breast?
Random periareolar fine-needle aspiration continues to gain scientific credence in the short-term identification of women at increased risk for breast cancer. As this technique becomes more widely used, APs may seek to be trained in an effort to expand clinical trials, and someday provide a "Pap smear of the breast" for the women who need it most.
متن کاملKi-67 expression in benign breast ductal cells obtained by random periareolar fine needle aspiration.
Ki-67 expression in ductal cells obtained by random periareolar fine needle aspiration (RPFNA) is currently being used as a response biomarker in phase II breast cancer chemoprevention trials; however, Ki-67 in RPFNA has not been well studied as a risk predictor for cancer, which would support its use as a response indicator. We examined the expression of Ki-67 in RPFNA specimens with hyperplas...
متن کاملARTICLES Short-Term Breast Cancer Prediction by Random Periareolar Fine-Needle Aspiration Cytology and the Gail Risk Model
Background: Biomarkers are needed to refine short-term breast cancer risk estimates from epidemiologic models and to measure response to prevention interventions. The purpose of our study was to determine whether the cytologic appearance of epithelial cells obtained from breast random periareolar fine-needle aspirates or molecular marker expression in these cells was associated with later breas...
متن کاملLetters to the Editor Ki-67 Expression in Benign Breast Ductal Cells Obtained by Random Periareolar Fine Needle Aspiration
To the Editors: Robust and reversible biomarkers are needed for the successful completion of phase II prevention trials, an area where Fabian and colleagues have made enormous contributions. One potential marker is cell proliferation, measured by Ki-67 labeling; Khan et al. present data obtained by random periareolar fine-needle aspiration in 147 women at high-risk, which they interpret as prov...
