Nontheless, therapeutic NWLB (partial mastectomy with or without axillary dissection) is indicated in select cases of DCIS or small invasive carcinomas in those patients desiring breast conservation.doi:10.1053/otgn.2000.7814ChristineT.MrozElsevier Inc.Operative Techniques in General Surgery...
Mucocele-like lesions in the breast diagnosed with percutaneous biopsy: is surgical excision necessary? The purpose of this study was to determine the frequencies of atypia and cancer at excisional biopsy of lesions with a diagnosis of mucocele-like lesion (M... D Ha,V Dialani,TS Mehta,.....
Rao et al (2010) stated that seed localization uses a radioactive source to identify non-palpable breast lesions for excision; it is an emerging alternative to wire-localized breast biopsy (WLBB). Previous single health system studies reported decreased rates of re-excision and improved patient c...

A microarray was constructed from commercial antigens and antigens selected from screened cDNA libraries of breast cancer tissue samples. A training set containing 439 healthy controls and 276 biopsy proven breast cancer cases was used to establish a set of separating models between the two groups....
If this turns up minimal findings—for example, a single cancer cell or cancerous spots that are less than two millimeters in size—further excision of the nodes is not required. But what if thenode biopsyturns up metastases that are larger than 2 millmeters in one or two sentinel nodes?

non-palpable breast lesions. The effectiveness of vacuum-assisted breast biopsy has been demonstrated on lesions both with and without microcalcifications. Given that the position of the lesion represents a major factor in stereotactic vacuum-assisted breast biopsy, targeting lesions in close proximity ...
This enables differentiation between the tumor and benign lesions like post-biopsy hematomas or cysts. Furthermore, MRI has a high sensitivity for detection of invasive breast cancer and a good correlation with histopathology findings [24, 25]. However, standard diagnostic MRI is performed in prone...
Breast cancer is a heterogenous disease with variability in tumor cells and in the surrounding tumor microenvironment (TME). Understanding the molecular diversity in breast cancer is critical for improving prediction of therapeutic response and prognosti
