Needle-localization biopsy of the breast: impact of a selective core needle biopsy program on yield.

Abstract: Appropriate selection of cases for core biopsy can more than double the yield of cancer in NLB samples without a decrease in the percentage of small cancers detected.

“…The slightly higher frequency ofcarcinoma in lesions that un derwent surgical biopsy than in lesions subject to percutaneous biopsy in our study may reflect preferential referral of the less suggestive cate gory 4 lesions to the percutaneous biopsy group. cutaneous biopsy to remove some benign le sions from the pool of lesions that would otherwise have been referred for surgery [18]. However, the frequency of carcinoma at needle localized biopsy that we observed is comparable with the 40% frequency of carcinoma at needle localized biopsy reported by Jackman and Marzoni [19] and is within the 9â€"47%range re ported in the review of the literature in that study.…”

“…78 Many experienced physicians believe that if a thorough imaging work-up has been performed, the PPV for biopsies of nonpalpable abnormalities should range from 25 to 40%. 4,[78][79][80][81][82] This number is derived from all women referred for biopsy on the basis of screening mammograms, not only those biopsied using stereotactically guided CNB.…”

“…12 Ultrasonographically guided 14-gauge core breast biopsy was first described in 1993 by Parker et al 13 Since then there have been few large series describing ultrasonographically guided 14-gauge LCNB. 12,14,15 Most radiology departments maintain ultrasonographic equipment, so initial implementation of this technique should not require significant additional expense. However, as the demand for ultrasonographically guided biopsy increases, equipment specifically dedicated to breast imaging may be required, although the cost remains significantly less than the cost of a stereotactic prone table.…”
