Abstract
OBJECTIVE To prospectively evaluate the efficacy of microwave ablation (MWA) for benign breast lesions (BBLs) ≥2 cm and explore the possible factors associated with the volume reduction rate (VRR) of ablated lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS From November 2013 to December 2017, a total of 80 patients with 104 biopsy-proved BBLs larger than 2 cm in size underwent MWA. After the procedure, patients were followed up via physical and imaging examination consisting of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Possible factors associated with 12-month VRR were assessed, including basic patient characteristics, index lesions and parameters of ablation technique. RESULTS The mean tumor size was 2.6 ± 0.6 cm (ranging 2.0-6.3 cm). Of the 104 lesions, 70 were fibroadenomas, 27 adenosis and 7 fibrocystic changes. Post-procedure CEUS or contrast-enhanced MRI showed that all lesions were completely ablated. No immediate or delayed complications were observed. All patients were followed up for more than 12 months (median follow-up 12.5 months). After MWA, the ablated lesion volume decreased significantly by 12 months (p < 0.001), with a mean volume reduction of 80.2 ± 13.1%. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that location adjacent to areola (β = 7.5, 95%CI: 1.0-13.9, p = 0.025) and location adjacent to skin (β = -7.4, 95%CI: -12.7 to -13.9, p = 0.007) were independent factors respectively associated with the increased and decreased 12-month VRR. CONCLUSION For BBLs larger than 2 cm, US-guided MWA is a favorable treatment modality, with BBLs adjacent to the areola being associated with more significant 12-month VRR after MWA.

Abstract
Background The management of papillary lesions of the breast remains controversial, and thus, we assessed the value of vacuum-assisted excision (VAE)-guided ultrasound in the diagnosis and treatment of breast papillary lesions. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the data of 108 patients with papillary lesions diagnosed using VAE between August 2014 and January 2019. Cases without postoperative breast imaging in the follow-up were excluded, and 85 cases were eligible for the study. The follow-up period ranged from 6 to 53 months, with 38 months on average. All the papillary lesions were located away from the skin or nipple with a size less than or equal to 30 mm, and the lesions categorized as C2-4b were completely excised using VAE. All VAEs were performed using an 8-gauge vacuum-assisted biopsy needle under the guidance of ultrasound using a 10 MHz linear probe. Results Most patients with breast papillary lesions were asymptomatic (56.5%), and when the size of the breast papillary lesion was more than 20 mm on ultrasound imaging, atypical hyperplasia may have been concomitant. Breast lesions might have been pathologically diagnosed as papilloma after biopsy when they were categorized as BI-RADS 4a on ultrasound images. The rate of underestimation was 7.7% in papillary lesions diagnosed with VAE, and the recurrence rate of papilloma after VAE was low. Conclusions Breast papilloma was a common lesion on ultrasonographic screening, and VAE was applicable for completely excising small papillomas, even papillomas with atypical hyperplasia, to obtain an accurate diagnosis with a low rate of underestimation and recurrence. We believe that papilloma diagnosed by VAE might not require immediate excision, and imaging follow-up may be safe for at least 3 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety between Mammotome vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (Mammotome VABB) and conventional open excision for benign breast tumor. METHODS A computer-based online search of Medline, PubMed, Embase, Ovid, Cochrane Library, VIP, Wanfang, CNKI and Chinese Biological Medicine Database was performed, and conference references were manually searched. With the Cochrane Collaboration Guidelines, all randomized controlled trials comparing mammotome minimally invasive operation and conventional open excision were systematically reviewed. The Cochrane Collaboration's RevMan 5.0 software was used for data analysis. RESULTS A total of 15 studies involving 5,256 patients was included. Meta-analyses showed no significant difference in the size of tumor, postoperative hematomas, ecchymosis, ecchymoma and residual disease between Mammotome VABB and conventional open excision. Mammotome VABB was superior to open excision as to the size of incision, intraoperative blood loss, operative time, healing time, size of scar, wound infection and breast deformation. CONCLUSIONS Mammotome VABB is an ideal method for benign breast tumor.

Abstract
The management and treatment of an adolescent presenting with a fibroadenoma or virginal breast hypertrophy can be challenging as there is a paucity of original research on these conditions. Although surgical therapies are often discussed as first-line therapy in adolescents presenting with a breast mass, it is prudent that nonsurgical interventions and medical therapies be considered as initial therapy with the goal of maintaining an acceptable cosmetic outcome.

Abstract
The indications, technique, results and limitations of MRI vacuum-assisted breast biopsies are discussed from a review of the literature. This was initially a home-grown technique and its development was slowed down by several factors. As a result of major technical advances, it has become a reliable and very consistent procedure with a low rate of underestimation. It is now an undisputed technique when suspicious MRI enhancement is seen with no corresponding mammography or ultrasound features.

Abstract
Due to the development in medical science and industrial technology, minimally invasive procedures have appeared in the surgery of benign and malignant breast diseases. In general , such interventions result in significantly reduced breast and chest wall scars, shorter hospitalization and less pain, but they require specific, expensive devices, longer surgical time compared to open surgery. Furthermore, indications or oncological safety have not been established yet. It is quite likely, that minimally invasive surgical procedures with high-tech devices - similar to other surgical subspecialties -, will gradually become popular and it may form part of routine breast surgery even. Vacuum-assisted core biopsy with a therapeutic indication is suitable for the removal of benign fibroadenomas leaving behind an almost invisible scar, while endoscopically assisted skin-sparing and nipple-sparing mastectomy, axillary staging and reconstruction with latissimus dorsi muscle flap are all feasible through the same short axillary incision. Endoscopic techniques are also suitable for the diagnostics and treatment of intracapsular complications of implant-based breast reconstructions (intracapsular fluid, implant rupture, capsular contracture) and for the biopsy of intracapsular lesions with uncertain pathology. Perception of the role of radiofrequency ablation of breast tumors requires further hands-on experience, but it is likely that it can serve as a replacement of surgical removal in a portion of primary tumors in the future due to the development in functional imaging and anticancer drugs. With the reduction of the price of ductoscopes routine examination of the ductal branch system, guided microdochectomy and targeted surgical removal of terminal ducto-lobular units or a "sick lobe" as an anatomical unit may become feasible. The paper presents the experience of the authors and provides a literature review, for the first time in Hungarian language on the subject. Orv. Hetil., 2014, 155(5), 162-169.

Ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted core biopsy in the diagnosis and treatment of focal lesions of the breast - own experience. Wideochir Inne Tech Maloinwazyjne 2012; 8:63-8. [PMID: 23630556 PMCID: PMC3627158 DOI: 10.5114/wiitm.2011.31630] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2012] [Revised: 09/19/2012] [Accepted: 10/09/2012] [Indexed: 12/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Vacuum-assisted core biopsy (VACB) guided by ultrasound is a minimally invasive method used in diagnosis and treatment of breast focal lesions. Vacuum-assisted core biopsy is an interesting minimally invasive alternative to open surgical biopsy. Aim To assess the value of ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted core biopsy in the diagnosis and treatment of breast focal lesions. Material and methods In the period 2009-2010, 397 ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted core biopsies were performed. Mean age of the patients was 41.7 years (18-92 years), and size of the lesions ranged from 3 mm to 65 mm, mean size being 12 mm. All women with diagnosed atypical ductal hyperplasia or cancer were qualified for surgery. The patients with histopathologically benign lesions were under follow-up. Results Samples sufficient for histopathological examination were obtained from 394 cases (99.2%). Of all 397 lesions, 293 (73.7%) were diagnosed as benign, there were 6 (1.6%) cases of atypical ductal hyperplasia and 98 (24.7%) malignant lesions. Three hundred and sixty-nine lesions were below 15 mm in diameter, of which 339 (91.9%) were totally removed during the VACB. Conclusions The results obtained confirm high efficiency of ultrasound-guided VACB in the differential diagnosis of breast focal lesions, including impalpable ones. It is a safe method with a low complication rate. In the case of benign lesions with a diameter not exceeding 15 mm, it allows one to excise the whole lesion and is a very good alternative to an open surgical biopsy. Vacuum-assisted core biopsy should be a standard and the method of choice in diagnosing breast lesions.

Abstract
Background Ultrasound-guided diagnostic breast biopsy technology represents the current standard of care for the evaluation of indeterminate and suspicious lesions seen on diagnostic breast ultrasound. Yet, there remains much debate as to which particular method of ultrasound-guided diagnostic breast biopsy provides the most accurate and optimal diagnostic information. The aim of the current study was to compare and contrast the 8-gauge vacuum-assisted biopsy approach and the spring-loaded 14-gauge core biopsy approach. Methods A retrospective analysis was done of all ultrasound-guided diagnostic breast biopsy procedures performed by either the 8-gauge vacuum-assisted biopsy approach or the spring-loaded 14-gauge core biopsy approach by a single surgeon from July 2001 through June 2009. Results Among 1443 ultrasound-guided diagnostic breast biopsy procedures performed, 724 (50.2%) were by the 8-gauge vacuum-assisted biopsy technique and 719 (49.8%) were by the spring-loaded 14-gauge core biopsy technique. The total number of false negative cases (i.e., benign findings instead of invasive breast carcinoma) was significantly greater (P = 0.008) in the spring-loaded 14-gauge core biopsy group (8/681, 1.2%) as compared to in the 8-gauge vacuum-assisted biopsy group (0/652, 0%), with an overall false negative rate of 2.1% (8/386) for the spring-loaded 14-gauge core biopsy group as compared to 0% (0/148) for the 8-gauge vacuum-assisted biopsy group. Significantly more (P < 0.001) patients in the spring-loaded 14-gauge core biopsy group (81/719, 11.3%) than in the 8-gauge vacuum-assisted biopsy group (18/724, 2.5%) were recommended for further diagnostic surgical removal of additional tissue from the same anatomical site of the affected breast in an immediate fashion for indeterminate/inconclusive findings seen on the original ultrasound-guided diagnostic breast biopsy procedure. Significantly more (P < 0.001) patients in the spring-loaded 14-gauge core biopsy group (54/719, 7.5%) than in the 8-gauge vacuum-assisted biopsy group (9/724, 1.2%) personally requested further diagnostic surgical removal of additional tissue from the same anatomical site of the affected breast in an immediate fashion for a benign finding seen on the original ultrasound-guided diagnostic breast biopsy procedure. Conclusions In appropriately selected cases, the 8-gauge vacuum-assisted biopsy approach appears to be advantageous to the spring-loaded 14-gauge core biopsy approach for providing the most accurate and optimal diagnostic information.

Abstract
B3 lesions comprise different histopathological entities that are considered benign but 'of unknown biological potential'. These entities may act as risk indicators (for both breasts) or as non-obligatory precursors of malignancy. Being diagnosed at percutaneous breast biopsy, an additional risk of underestimate exists. Imaging appearances, histopathological appearance and risk of associated malignancy are presented. B3 lesions of high risk, which thus should usually be excised, include atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH), pleomorphic or necrotic type of lobular neoplasia (LIN 3), and papillary lesions with atypias. Intermediate risk may be associated with classic lobular carcinoma in situ (LIN 2) or flat epithelial atypia (FEA), and low risk with radial sclerosing lesions (RSLs) and papillary lesions without atypias. LIN 1 is mostly an incidental finding acting as risk indicator. Follow-up is adequate if the initial diagnostic problem is solved. According to international guidelines, risk and subsequent recommendations should be discussed for each individual patient, taking into account biological risk, representative sampling, lesion size, lesion extent, percentage of lesion removal, other individual risks, and the possibility of surveillance. With vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (VABB), surgery may be avoided for more of the small lesions at low risk. Further data collection and diligent evaluation may help to better assess the individual risk, to better adapt treatment recommendations and avoid overtreatment.

Abstract
To assess ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy (US-VAB) for selected problem cases and to report experiences with two different biopsy systems. Fifty-one lesions have been biopsied using the Mammotome (n = 24) or the Vacora (n = 27) system. Main indications: lesion in scarring (n = 5), complex cystic >or=8 mm (n = 7), increase in size (n = 10), architectural distortion (n = 4), uncharacteristic palpable abnormality (2), small size (n = 22), regional microcalcifications (n = 1). Results are verified by surgical excision (n = 10) or follow-up (n = 40). One patient was lost to follow-up. In four of the cases preceding core biopsy was inconclusive. four invasive carcinomas, two ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), three papillomas, six fibroadenomas, one adenosis tumor, one hamartoma, 10 complex cysts, 16 benign changes, three fat necroses, two granulomas, three unspecific inflammatory changes are verified. Surgery confirmed five malignancies, four benign changes, and converted one uncertain diagnosis (architectural distortion) from "inflammatory" to DCIS. Documented removal of all or most of the lesions correctly increased the level of confidence and open surgery could be avoided in 41/51 lesions. The two systems show different advantages and drawbacks. US-VAB may improve the level of confidence in selected difficult cases. Careful case selection and systematic retrospective correlation of imaging and histology remain crucial.

Abstract
Background Ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy technology is extremely useful for diagnostic biopsy of suspicious breast lesions and for attempted complete excision of appropriately selected presumed benign breast lesions. Case presentation A female patient presented with 16 breast lesions (eight within each breast), documented on ultrasound and all presumed to be fibroadenomas. Over a ten and one-half month period of time, 14 of these 16 breast lesions were removed under ultrasound guidance during a total of 11 separate 8-gauge Mammotome® excision procedures performed during seven separate sessions. Additionally, two of these 16 breast lesions were removed by open surgical excision. A histopathologic diagnosis of fibroadenoma and/or fibroadenomatous changes was confirmed at all lesion excision sites. Interval follow-up ultrasound imaging revealed no evidence of a residual lesion at the site of any of the 16 original breast lesions. Conclusion This report describes an innovative approach of utilizing ultrasound-guided 8-gauge vacuum-assisted breast biopsy technology for assisting in achieving complete eradication of multiple bilateral fibroadenomas in a patient who presented with 16 documented breast lesions. As such, this innovative approach is highly recommended in similar appropriately selected patients.

Abstract
Background Minimally invasive breast biopsy technology is now considered a standard of care for the diagnostic evaluation of suspicious breast lesions. The aim of the current study was to present a comprehensive evaluation of the 8-gauge vacuum-assisted Mammotome® system for ultrasound-guided diagnostic biopsy and selective excision of breast lesions. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted of a series of 304 consecutive 8-gauge Mammotome® procedures that were performed under ultrasound guidance by a single surgeon from March 2004 to December 2006. Multiple variables, including patient demographics, characteristics of the breast lesion (based on ultrasound and mammography), procedural and histopathology variables, and interval follow-up variables (based on ultrasound and mammography), were evaluated. Results Among 304 procedures, 235 (77%) were performed with the presumption of complete excision of the ultrasound lesion during Mammotome® core acquisition, while 69 (23%) were performed with only partial excision of the ultrasound lesion during Mammotome® core acquisition (diagnostic tissue sampling only). 100% of all ultrasound lesions were accurately diagnosed, demonstrating no apparent false-negative results among the 256 patients that were compliant with follow-up at a median interval follow-up duration of 11 months (range 1 to 37). Likewise, 89% of all appropriately selected ultrasound lesions were completely excised, as demonstrated on interval follow-up ultrasound at a median time of 6 months (range, 3 to 16). There were no independent predictors of successful complete excision of any given appropriately selected ultrasound lesion by the ultrasound-guided 8-gauge Mammotome® biopsy technique. Conclusion The 8-gauge vacuum-assisted Mammotome® system is highly accurate for ultrasound-guided diagnostic biopsy of suspicious breast lesions and is highly successful for complete excision of appropriately selected presumed benign breast lesions. This particular technology should be routinely offered to all appropriately selected patients that are evaluated by physicians involved in breast-specific health care.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Fine needle aspiration has been used for many years as a diagnostic tool for breast lesions, with high sensitivity and specificity. There is controversy as to whether this technique should be replaced by other diagnostic procedures such as core biopsy. This review aims to re-evaluate the usefulness of breast fine needle aspiration. RECENT FINDINGS During the past 10 years many institutions have replaced fine needle aspiration by core biopsy and related techniques such as vacuum-assisted core biopsy and advanced breast biopsy instrument action. Other institutions continue to use fine needle aspiration as a first line of investigation for breast lesions. This technique is especially useful in radiologically benign lesions and when combined with image guidance. The use of the 'triple test' (combined cytologic, clinical and radiologic findings) decreases false-negative and false-positive results. SUMMARY Fine needle aspiration continues to be an acceptable and reliable procedure for the preoperative diagnosis of breast lesions, particularly in developing countries, and when used as part of the 'triple test'. Accurate diagnosis requires experience in both aspiration technique and specimen interpretation. Clinicians should be mindful of the limitations of the technique. The choice between fine needle aspiration and core biopsy should be individualized for the patient.

Abstract
AIM To describe our experience in the use of ultrasound guided mammotome in the diagnosis and management of single duct nipple discharge. METHODS Patients for whom surgical excision of the single duct had been advised for single duct nipple discharge were offered ultrasound guided mammotome excision of the duct as an alternative to surgical excision. The procedure was performed in the breast clinic by a surgeon or a breast clinician who had interventional ultrasound skills. RESULTS Seventy-seven patients had 81 procedures. Follow-up at a mean time of 16 months revealed resolution of the presenting problematic discharge in 95% of patients. Nipple discharge recurred in four patients. Two patients had microdochectomy and two had a repeat mammotome for recurrence of symptoms. Complications were mild and infrequent. CONCLUSION Ultrasound guided mammotome excision is a new tool in the work up and management of single duct nipple discharge. It can be performed under local anaesthetic by a surgeon/breast clinician or radiologist with interventional ultrasound skills. It has the potential to replace surgical excision (microdochectomy) as a treatment for nipple discharge.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the reliability of percutaneous breast biopsies in diagnosing and managing non malignant papillary lesions and determine if subsequent excision must be systematic. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Retrospective review of 2233 breast biopsies over a 43 months period (September 2001 to March 2005): sonographically guided core biopsies (n = 836), ultrasound (n = 346) or stereotactic (n:1051) guided vacuum biopsies. 86 non malignant papillary tumors were diagnosed (core biopsy:28, US:38 and stereotactic guided vacuum biopsy:20). A larger sample was systematic after core biopsy: lumpectomy (n = 19) or vacuum biopsy (n = 9). Surgical excision followed vacuum biopsy (n = 18) in case of atypia or sampling excision. Alternatively, yearly follow-up was advised (n = 40). Correlation with surgical findings (n = 37) or mammographic follow-up (n = 49) is presented. The influence of various factors on the risk of underestimation was analysed. RESULTS Surgical resection revealed an underestimation of 5/37 (13.5%): 4/19 with core- and 1/18 with vacuum-assisted biopsy corresponding to 4 low grade ductal carcinoma in situ and a microinvasive ductal carcinoma in situ. It was higher for core biopsies and related to age and size: higher when women<50 years and when radiological image>1 cm. The influence of the other factors was not significant. Of the 9 non operated papillomas after core biopsy, vacuum biopsy revealed an additional underestimation (low-grade ductal carcinoma in situ). Of the 49 papillary lesions that were not surgically biopsied, 40 were monitored at 2-42 months (average: 19 months). No carcinoma was detected during this follow-up. CONCLUSION Percutaneous biopsy is an accurate technique in managing papillary tumors. A larger histologic specimen is necessary after core biopsy. Vacuum biopsy is an attractive alternative to surgery for smaller papillomas (<1 cm), but in spite of nonsignificant results we advise subsequent excision in case of multiple papillomas, atypia or residual tumor.
