Value of Steel Wire Implantation with Prone Table Stereotactic Digital Mammography in the Detection of Microcalcification of the Breast / 中国肿瘤临床

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the clinical value of stereotactic wire-localized biopsy(SWLB)in digital mammography in the detection of microcalcification of the breast.Methods:A total of 45 patients with nonpalpable breast lesions which were positive for microcalcification by mammography but could not be detected clinically underwent SWLB.Their mammography fndings were analyzed in detail with pathology.Results:Among the 45 cases,13 cases(28.9%)had malignant lesions including ductal carcinoma in situ in 3 cases (20.1%),ductal carcinoma in situ with microinvasion in 4 cases(30.8%),invasive ductal carcinoma in 5 cases (38.5%)and intraductal papillary carcinoma in 1 case(7.7%).Thirty-two cases(71.1%)had benign lesions,2 cases(6.3%)of which were severe atypical hyperplasia.Conclusion:SWLB can accurately guide the surgical excision of nonpalpable breast microcalcification lesions and diagnose microcalcifications exactly,which is helpful for increasing the detection rate of eady-stage breast cancer.
