RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Breast-conserving surgery with breast re-irradiation is an emerging technique in the treatment of selected cases of locally recurrent breast cancer. Further information is needed to characterize factors that may select for an appropriate patient population for this treatment approach. METHODS: We report herein a single-institution retrospective analysis of patients with ipsilateral breast cancer recurrence treated with a second breast-conserving therapy with intraoperative radiotherapy. Patient records were reviewed to analyze toxicity, further recurrence, and characteristics of recurrent patients following this treatment approach. RESULTS: We included 57 patients in the analysis. At median follow-up of 24.5 months, ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence occurred in six patients (11%), four of which localized to the quadrant of the initial recurrent disease and two of which recurred elsewhere in the treated breast. Locoregional control was 89%, and disease-free survival was 81%. Only one patient was found to have grade 3 or greater toxicity. CONCLUSION: A second breast-conserving surgery with intraoperative radiotherapy is tolerable with acceptable toxicity for patients with locally recurrent disease refusing mastectomy. Prospective clinical trials are needed to define the subset of patients who may be appropriate for this treatment approach as an alternative to mastectomy.

RESUMO

Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) is a novel and increasingly utilized radiation technique in the treatment of breast carcinoma. There are few reports on the histologic changes seen in breast tissue from patients who have undergone IORT. We sought to evaluate the histologic changes observed in specimens received following IORT, as well as report an unusual case which prompted our study. A retrospective review of patients who received IORT and subsequently had breast tissue histologically evaluated at our institution was performed. Fifteen post-IORT specimens from 12 patients, including the patient from the reported case, were studied. We report a case of a 77-year-old woman found to have mammographic microcalcifications at the lumpectomy site 6 months following lumpectomy and IORT for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). A stereotactic biopsy showed abundant desquamated anucleate squamous cells with calcification and keratin material associated with squamous metaplasia of ducts. Carcinoma was not present. The predominant findings in the post-IORT specimens were fat necrosis and scar (n = 5), recurrent invasive carcinoma (n = 5), surgical site changes (n = 3), abscess (n = 1), and exuberant squamous metaplasia with calcification (n = 1). Five of fifteen (33%) post-IORT specimens showed squamous metaplasia, all of which were collected within 6 months of IORT delivery. The morphologic changes observed after IORT are similar to those seen after external beam radiotherapy. Exuberant squamous metaplasia is an uncommon consequence of IORT; however, pathologists should be aware of this phenomenon and review a history of prior intraoperative radiation before raising concern for malignancy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) through an inframammary fold (IMF) incision can provide superior cosmesis and a high level of patient satisfaction. Because of concerns for nipple-areolar complex (NAC) viability using this incision, selection criteria may be limited. Here, we evaluate the impact of scarring from prior lumpectomy on NAC viability. METHODS: A retrospective chart review was conducted on a prospectively collected database at a single institution between July 2006 and October 2012. A total of 318 NSMs through IMF incisions were performed. We compared the incidence of NAC ischemia in 122 NSM cases with prior lumpectomy with 196 NSM cases without prior lumpectomy. All 318 mastectomies were followed by implant-based reconstruction. Clinicopathologic factors analyzed included indications for surgery, technical details, patient demographics, comorbidities, and adjuvant therapy. RESULTS: The overall incidence of NAC ischemia was 20.4% (65/318). Nipple-areolar complex ischemia occurred in 24.6% (30/122) of cases with prior lumpectomy and 17.9% (35/196) of cases without prior lumpectomy (P = 0.1477). Among the 30 ischemic events in the 122 cases with prior lumpectomy, epidermolysis occurred in 20 (16.4%) and necrosis occurred in 10 (8.2%). Two cases (1.6%) required operative debridement. Seven cases (5.7%) were left with areas of residual NAC depigmentation. All other cases completely resolved with conservative management. There was no significant correlation between the incidence of ischemia and surgical indication, tumor staging, age, body mass index, tissue resection volume, sternal notch to nipple distance, prior radiation, single-stage reconstruction, sentinel or axillary lymph node dissection, acellular dermal matrix use, presence of periareolar lumpectomy scars, diabetes, or smoking history. At a mean follow-up of 505 days (range, 7-1504 days), patient satisfaction was excellent. Local recurrence of breast cancer occurred in 3 cases (2.5%), and distant recurrence occurred in 2 cases (1.6%). CONCLUSIONS: Patients with scarring from prior lumpectomy do not have a higher rate of NAC ischemia and may be considered for NSM via an IMF incision.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Oncoplastic breast reduction has been shown to be an effective approach to breast conservation surgery in women with macromastia. Clear surgical margins can be achieved while simultaneously improving symptomatic macromastia and enhancing aesthetic outcomes. Little has been written about postoperative complications after this procedure, beyond the risk of locoregional recurrence. This study aimed to compare the complication profile for oncoplastic breast reduction versus reduction for benign macromastia. METHODS: A retrospective review of our experience with oncoplastic breast reduction was performed. This represented a consecutive series of 118 patients undergoing bilateral breast reduction during the 7-year study period from March 2005 to March 2012. There were 64 patients identified who underwent oncoplastic breast reduction. Patients were determined to be a good candidate for breast conservation therapy if it was felt that clear surgical margins could be obtained without mastectomy. Postoperative complications (within 6 weeks of surgery) were compared to a control group of 56 patients undergoing reduction for benign macromastia. The associations between complications and potential risk factors were analyzed using logistic regression. RESULTS: Patients undergoing oncoplastic breast reduction and reduction for benign macromastia had some key differences. In general, macromastia patients were younger (mean age, 42.3 vs 57.5 years; P < 0.001) and had lower body mass index (mean, 26.1 vs 30.6 kg/m2; P < 0.001) compared to those patients having oncoplastic reduction. Within the oncoplastic reduction group, 14 (21.9%) patients had a total of 16 complications; among the benign macromastia group, 9 (16.1%) patients had a total of 10 complications (P = 0.420). On univariate analysis, oncoplastic reduction was not predictive of having a perioperative complication (odds ratio, 1.462; 95% confidence interval, 0.579-3.696; P = 0.422). Body mass index was found to be predictive of having a complication after reduction for either indication (odds ratio, 1.108; 95% confidence interval, 1.018-1.206; P = 0.017). Within the oncoplastic reduction cohort at an average follow-up of 34.6 months (range, 0.3-90.3 months), 5 (7.9%) patients developed locoregional recurrence and 2 patients developed distant metastasis. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with reduction mammoplasty for benign macromastia, a widely accepted procedure, patients undergoing oncoplastic breast reduction were equally likely to have a postoperative complication. Elevated body mass index was shown to be a statistically significant predictor of having a complication after reduction for either indication. Overall complication rates were acceptably low for both procedures.

RESUMO

Breast reconstruction after mastectomy is most commonly performed with a prosthetic implant placed beneath the pectoralis major. Recurrence may rarely be identified in the subpectoral space where the implant was placed. We report a case of recurrent breast cancer after implant-based reconstruction with isolated subpectoral recurrence discovered 5 years later during secondary revision of her reconstructed breast.

RESUMO

Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) is an increasingly utilized surgical option in managing breast carcinoma; however, data on malignant involvement of a separately submitted nipple margin are scant. Consecutive NSM, including those performed for therapeutic and prophylactic purposes, over a 4-year period (2007-2011), were studied. A separately submitted nipple margin was evaluated by permanent H&E preparations and via frozen section evaluation whenever requested. 325 consecutive NSM specimens, 208 (64%) therapeutic-NSM, and 117 (36%) prophylactic-NSM were studied. All nipples were clinically unremarkable. 86% (179/208) of nipple margins from therapeutic-NSM and 100% (117/117) from prophylactic-NSM showed no histopathologic abnormality. 14% (29/208) of nipple margins from therapeutic-NSM and no nipple margin from prophylactic-NSM showed malignancy. Frozen section evaluation was performed in 188/325 NSM (58%) with a sensitivity of 64% and specificity of 99%. Central tumor location and stage N2/N3 lymph node status were significantly associated with nipple margin positivity (χ(2) ≤ 0.05). Subsequent nipple resection was performed in 69% (20/29) of nipple margin-positive cases with residual malignancy found in 40% (8/20, including three cases of invasive carcinoma). In a mean follow-up of 33 months, one invasive carcinoma recurred in the "saved" nipple, 36 months after therapeutic-NSM. 14% (29/208) of nipple margins in therapeutic-NSM and no nipple margin (0/117) in prophylactic-NSM showed malignancy. Central tumor location and N2/N3 stage were significantly associated with nipple margin positivity (χ(2) ≤ 0.05).

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is used to detect breast cancer axillary metastases. Some surgeons send the sentinel lymph node (SLN) for intraoperative frozen section (FS) to minimize delayed axillary dissections. There has been concern that FS may discard nodal tissue and thus underdiagnose small metastases. This study examines whether evaluation of SLN by FS increases the false-negative rate of SLNB. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of SLNB from 659 patients was conducted to determine the frequency of node positivity among SLNB subjected to both FS and permanent section (PS) versus PS alone. Statistical analysis was performed by the chi(2) square test, and a logistic regression model was applied to estimate the effect of final node positivity between the two groups. RESULTS: FS was performed in 327 patients and PS was performed in all 659 patients. Among patients undergoing both FS and PS (n = 327), the final node positivity rate was 33.0% compared with 19.6% among patients undergoing PS alone (n = 332). After adjustment for patient age, tumor diameter, grade, and hormone receptor status in a multivariate logistic regression model, there remained an increased likelihood of final node positivity for patients undergoing both procedures relative to PS alone (adjusted odds ratio, 2.1; 95% confidence interval, 1.3-3.6; P = .005). CONCLUSIONS: There was a higher rate of SLN positivity in specimens evaluated by both FS and PS. Therefore, evaluating SLN by FS does not underdiagnose small metastases nor produce a higher false-negative rate. Intraoperative FS offers the advantage of less delayed axillary dissections.

RESUMO

Morphea is a localized form of scleroderma usually unaccompanied by the typical systemic stigmata that characterize progressive systemic scleroderma. It rarely manifests at the site of whole breast external-beam radiation therapy. We present an unusual case of radiation-induced morphea (RIM) that occurred after accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using intracavitary Contura brachytherapy. A 65-year-old white woman was treated for stage IIA invasive ductal carcinoma of the left breast with APBI to a dose of 34 Gy in 3.4-Gy fractions twice daily over the course 5 days with intracavitary brachytherapy. At 1.5 years after completion of APBI, the patient developed an area of tenderness, erythema, and induration at the site of irradiation. A skin biopsy was consistent with morphea. To our knowledge, this is the first case of RIM confined to the area of APBI.

RESUMO

Radiation recall dermatitis (RRD) is a rare phenomenon. There are a few reports in the literature reporting RRD triggered by quinolones administration after external beam radiation therapy (EBRT). We present an unusual case of RRD induced by levofloxacin 7 months after completion of EBRT. A 56-year-old Caucasian female was treated with EBRT for stage I carcinoma of the right breast with whole breast irradiation followed by the boost to the tumor bed to a total dose of 6080 cGy. Seven months post completion of EBRT, levofloxacin was administered for an upper respiratory tract infection. On day 8 of levofloxacin, the patient developed a blistering RRD in the skin overlying the area of previous radiation portals. Discontinuation of the RRD-inducing antibiotic and appropriate therapy led to the resolution of the condition. We review literature emphasizing this quinolone antibiotic as a causative of RRD.

RESUMO

Invasive carcinoma in the axilla may arise from skin appendage glands or ectopic breast tissue or it may be a metastasis. Carcinomas of the skin adnexal glands and breast can be difficult to distinguish from each other as they often display the same patterns of growth. Tubular, cribriform, papillary, apocrine, mucinous, and adenoid cystic are histologic types of carcinoma seen in the breast and skin appendage glands. To our knowledge, secretory carcinoma, the most common form of mammary carcinoma in children, has not yet been described as a morphologic pattern of skin adnexal carcinoma, although we cannot exclude the possibility that such a case was reported with a different diagnosis. We report a case of a young girl with secretory carcinoma that seems to have arisen from skin appendage glands in the skin of the axilla in the absence of demonstrable ectopic breast tissue.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Digital infrared thermal imaging (DITI) has resurfaced in this era of modernized computer technology. Its role in the detection of breast cancer is evaluated. METHODS: In this prospective clinical trial, 92 patients for whom a breast biopsy was recommended based on prior mammogram or ultrasound underwent DITI. Three scores were generated: an overall risk score in the screening mode, a clinical score based on patient information, and a third assessment by artificial neural network. RESULTS: Sixty of 94 biopsies were malignant and 34 were benign. DITI identified 58 of 60 malignancies, with 97% sensitivity, 44% specificity, and 82% negative predictive value depending on the mode used. Compared to an overall risk score of 0, a score of 3 or greater was significantly more likely to be associated with malignancy (30% vs 90%, P < .03). CONCLUSION: DITI is a valuable adjunct to mammography and ultrasound, especially in women with dense breast parenchyma.
