ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to compare wire localization (WL) and radioactive seed localization (RSL) for nonpalpable breast lesions with regard to margin status, re-excision rate, procedure length, and complications related to localization. A retrospective review of the electronic health records at a single institution was performed. There was no difference in re-excision rate, margin positivity, volume of tissue removed, and complication rate for RSL vs WL (P = 0.9934, P = 0.9934, P = 0.6645, and P = 0.4716 respectively). The only difference was a longer OR time, RSL = 104.408 minutes vs WL = 82.386 minutes. (P = 0.0163). RSL and WL are comparable techniques for localization of nonpalpable breast lesions.
