The Role of Superb Microvascular Imaging and Shearwave Elastography in the Evaluation of Intraductal Papilloma-Like Lesions. JOURNAL OF ULTRASOUND IN MEDICINE : OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF ULTRASOUND IN MEDICINE 2022; 41:995-1008. [PMID: 34862641 DOI: 10.1002/jum.15907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2021] [Revised: 11/12/2021] [Accepted: 11/20/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the role of quantitative values obtained by superb microvascular imaging (SMI) and shearwave elastography (SWE) in the prediction of malignancy in intraductal papilloma-like lesions (IDPL). METHODS In the study, 61 patients between the ages of 14 to 73 years (mean age 44) diagnosed with IDPL on ultrasound (US) examination between the years 2020 and 2021 were included. The B-Mode US findings (shape, margins, size, echo pattern, and accompanying ductal dilatation), SMI vascular index (SMIvi), E-mean, and SWE-ratio values were recorded. RESULTS There was a statistically significant difference between malignant (n = 14) and benign (n = 47) groups in terms of symptoms (P = .005), size (P = .042), shape (P = .002), margins (P = .001), echogenicity (P = .023), microcalcifications (P = .009), SMIvi (P = .031), E-mean (P < .005), and SWE-ratio (P = .007). According to receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, area under the curve (AUC), positive predictive values (PPV), and negative predictive values (NPV) were 57.1%, 87.2%, 80%, 0.722, 57.1%, 87.2% for US; 71.4%, 49%, 55.7%, 0.692, 30.3%, 85.7% for SMIvi; 85.7%, 71%, 74%, 0.864, 46%, 94.3% for E-mean, and 50%, 75.4%, 83%, 0.707, 91.5%, and 50% for SWE-ratio, respectively. Best results were obtained when SMI and SWE values were used together, achieving a sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, AUC, PPD, NPD of 78.6%, 93.6%, 93.4%, 0.872, 91.7%, and 93.9%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The SMI and SWE examinations are successful in the differentiation of benign and malignant intraductal lesions. They complement each other and contribute to B-mode US in managing IDPLs especially when used together. Our study is the first to compare the quantitative data of SWE and SMI in the differentiation of IDPLs.

Breast papillomas in the United States: single institution data on underrepresented minorities with a multi-institutional update on incidence. Clin Imaging 2022; 82:21-28. [PMID: 34768222 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinimag.2021.10.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2021] [Revised: 09/24/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/07/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the percentage of papillomas from all biopsies performed, comparing differences in patient age and race at a single institution. To assess trends in biopsied papillomas at institutions throughout the United States (US). METHODS This is a HIPPA-compliant IRB-approved single-institution (Southern1) retrospective review to assess race and age of all-modality-biopsied non-malignant papillomas as a percentage of all biopsies (percentage papillomas calculated as papilloma biopsies/all biopsies) from January 2012 to December 2019. To assess national variation, several academic or large referral centers were contacted to provide data regarding papilloma percentages, biopsy modalities, and trends in case numbers. Trends were estimated using the method of analysis of variance (ANOVA). Comparisons of differences in trends were assessed. RESULTS Southern1 institution demonstrated a significant association between race and percentage of papillomas (p < 0.0001). After adjustment for multiple comparisons with Bonferroni correction at 5% type I family error, the percentage of biopsied papillomas in Black and Asian patients remained significantly higher than in White patients (p < 0.0001 and p = 0.0032, respectively) using a Chi-square test. The regional variation in percentage of papillomas was found to be 3-9%. Southern1 institution showed a 7-year significant trend of increase in percentage of papillomas. Other institutions showed a decreasing trend (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Black and Asian women had significantly higher papilloma percentages compared to white patients in our single institution review. This institution also showed a statistically significant trend of increasing percentage papillomas from 2012 to 2019. Multi-institutional survey found regional variation in percentage papillomas, ranging from 3% to 9%.

Cancer Cytopathol 2021; 129:649-661. [PMID: 33561323 DOI: 10.1002/cncy.22412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2020] [Revised: 11/13/2020] [Accepted: 11/16/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The cytologic diagnosis of papillary lesions of the breast is challenging because of the diverse morphology, including epithelial hyperplasia, atypia, low-grade malignancy, and neuroendocrine differentiation; also, traditional malignant features such as necrosis and myoepithelial cell loss can be lacking. Thus, the diagnostic criteria for papillary lesions may differ from those for other breast lesions. This study evaluated various cytologic parameters in a large cohort to identify useful diagnostic features. METHODS Cytologic preparations of papillary lesions with histologic follow-up were reviewed for features related to cellularity, epithelial cohesiveness, cellular and stromal architecture, cytomorphology, and background. Corresponding histologic slides were also reviewed. RESULTS In all, 153 cases were included. Epithelial discohesion, solid and cribriform patterns, atypical nuclear features, and mitoses (P ≤ .001 to P = .017) were associated with malignancy. Cell balls, monolayer sheets, and features of cystic change (P < .001 to P = .016) were associated with benign lesions. Complex (P = .031) and slender (P = .026) papillae and neuroendocrine features (P < .001) were associated with malignancy. Hemorrhage, background, and infiltrating neutrophils (P < .001 to P = .025) were associated with malignancy; fibrotic broad papillary stromal fragments (naked papillary fronds [NPFs]; P = .043) were associated with benignity. The presence of any single parameter, including the absence of myoepithelial cells within epithelial structure, the presence of cytoplasmic granules, an increased amount of cytoplasm, and a nuclear to cytoplasmic (N/C) ratio greater than 0.7, which were identified by principal component analysis, yielded a sensitivity of 95.1% and a specificity of 100.0% in predicting malignancy. CONCLUSIONS Methodological assessment of multiple features is recommended. Myoepithelial cells, cytoplasmic granules, the amount of cytoplasm, and the N/C ratio are key features for diagnosis.

Abstract
The management of intraductal papilloma (IDP) diagnosed on core needle biopsy (CNB) is controversial due to the variable upgrade rates to breast carcinoma (BC) on subsequent surgical excision reported in the literature. The purpose of our study was to investigate the upgrade rate of IDP diagnosed on CNB to BC in subsequent surgical excision and the impact of clinical, pathologic, and radiologic variables. This is a retrospective cohort of all women who had a diagnosis of IDP on a CNB between 2005 and 2018 in a tertiary academic center with subsequent surgical excision. Upgrade was defined as ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and invasive carcinoma on surgical excision. Statistical analyses included Pearson's chi-square, Wilcoxon rank-sum, and logistic regression. A total of 216 women with IDP in a CNB were included. Nineteen patients (8.8%) upgraded to BC in the overall cohort, including 14 DCIS and 5 invasive carcinomas. An upgrade rate of 27% was found in atypical IDP (14 of 51 cases), while only 3% of pure IDP upgraded to BC (5 of 165 cases). Older age (>53 years) at the time of biopsy (odds ratio [OR] = 1.05, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.01-1.09, p = 0.027) and concomitant atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) (OR = 9.69, 95% CI = 3.37-27.81, p < 0.0001) were significantly associated with upgrade. Our results support surgical excision of IDP on CNB when associated with ADH or diagnosed in women aged older than 53 years. The low surgical upgrade rate of 3% for pure IDP on CNB in younger women should be part of the management discussion.

Abstract
Background The management of intraductal papilloma without atypia (IDP) in breast needle biopsy remains controversial. This study investigates the upgrade rate of IDP to carcinoma and clinical and radiologic features predictive of an upgrade. Methods Patients with a diagnosis of IDP on image-guided (mammography, ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging) core needle or vacuum-assisted biopsy and surgical excision of this lesion at a certified breast center between 2007 and 2017 were included in this institutional review board-approved retrospective study. Appropriate statistical tests were performed to assess clinical and radiologic characteristics associated with an upgrade to malignancy at excision. Results For 60 women with 62 surgically removed IDPs, the upgrade rate to malignancy was 16.1% (10 upgrades, 4 invasive ductal carcinoma, 6 ductal carcinoma in situ). IDPs with upgrade to carcinoma showed a significantly greater distance to the nipple (63.5 vs. 36.8 mm; p = 0.012). No significant associations were found between upgrade to carcinoma and age, menopausal status, lesion size, microcalcifications, BI-RADS descriptors, initial BI-RADS category, and biopsy modality. Conclusion The upgrade rate at excision for IDPs diagnosed with needle biopsy was higher than expected according to some guideline recommendations. Observation only might not be appropriate for all patients with IDP, particularly for those with peripheral IDP.

Abstract
Atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) is a proliferative, nonobligate precursor breast lesion and a marker of increased risk for breast carcinoma. Surgical excision remains the standard recommendation following a core needle biopsy result consistent with ADH. Recent research suggests that women with no mass lesion or discordance, removal of greater than or equal to 90% of calcifications at the time of core needle biopsy, involvement of less than or equal to 2 terminal duct lobular units, and absence of cytologic atypia or necrosis are likely to have a less than 5% chance of a missed cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The breast lesion excision system (BLES) is a new, automatic percutaneous breast biopsy device that excises single large specimens using radiofrequency cutting. The aim of this study was to determine whether BLES, under stereotactic guidance, can be used as a therapeutic tool in the assessment of small areas of microcalcifications in the breast by providing samples with clear margins. MATERIAL AND METHODS In this retrospective study, 149 patients with suspicious (BIRADS 4 or 5) small areas of microcalcifications underwent stereotactic-guided BLES. Of these, 34 patients (22.8%) with microcalcifications that had a diameter smaller than the basket size (≤15mm) underwent both BLES and subsequent surgery. Histopathology findings from BLES and subsequent surgery were compared. Identical, underestimation and total excision findings were assessed. RESULTS BLES revealed fourteen (41.1%) high-risk lesions, ten (29.4%) ductal carcinomas in situ, and ten (29.4%) invasive cancers. Identical results between BLES and surgery were seen in 17/34 (50%) lesions. Surgery confirmed total excision of BLES in 15/34 (44.1%) lesions. Underestimation was seen in 2/34 (5.8%) lesions. CONCLUSION BLES allows accurate diagnosis of small areas of microcalcifications, with few underestimates. BLES is a diagnostic, but cannot be considered to be a therapeutic tool in the case of suspicious microcalcifications because total excision was seen in only 44.1% of these lesions. Studies are needed to address the therapeutic benefit of this procedure in solid lesions.

Abstract
Context.—Diagnosis of papillary breast lesions, especially in core biopsies, is challenging for most pathologists, and these lesions pose problems for patient management. Distinction between benign, premalignant, and malignant components of papillary lesions is challenging, and the diagnosis of invasion is problematic in lesions that have circumscribed margins. Obtaining a balance between overtreatment and undertreatment of these lesions is also challenging.
Objectives.—To provide a classification and a description of the histologic and immunohistochemical features and the differential diagnosis of papillary breast lesions, to provide an update on the molecular pathology of papillary breast lesions, and to discuss the recommendations for further investigation and management of papillary breast lesions. This review provides a concise description of the histologic and immunohistochemical features of the different papillary lesions of the breast.
Data Sources.—The standard pathology text books on breast pathology and literature on papillary breast lesions were reviewed with the assistance of the PubMed database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed).
Conclusions.—Knowledge of the clinical presentation, histology, immunoprofile, and behavior of papillary breast lesions will assist pathologists with the diagnosis and optimal management of patients with papillary breast lesions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To provide guidelines for clinical practice from the French College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (CNGOF), based on the best evidence available, concerning common benign breast tumors: fibroadenoma (FA), phyllodes breast tumors (PBT), and papillary lesions (BPL). METHODS Bibliographical search in French and English languages by consultation of PubMed, Cochrane and international databases. RESULTS In case of percutaneous biopsy diagnosis of FA, clinico-radiologic and pathologic discordance or complex FA or proliferative lesions or atypia with FA, a family history of cancer, it seems legitimate to discuss management in a multidisciplinary meeting. When surgery is proposed for FA, periareolar compared to direct incision is associated with more insensitive nipple but better aesthetic results (LE4). When surgery is proposed for FA, indirect incision is preferable for better cosmetic results (Grade C). Techniques of percutaneous destruction or resection can be used (Grade C). The WHO classification distinguishes three categories of phyllodes tumors (PBT): benign (grade 1), borderline (grade 2) and malignant (grade 3). For grade 1 PBT, the risk of local recurrence after surgical excision increases when PBT lesion is in contact with surgical limits (not in sano). After in sano resection, there is no correlation between margin size and the risk of recurrence (LE4). For grade 2 PBT, local recurrence after surgical excision increases for margins under 10mm margins (LE4). For grade 1-2 PBT, in sano excision is recommended. For grade 2 PBT, 10-mm margins are recommended (Grade C). No lymph node evaluation or neither systematic mastectomy is recommended (Grade C). Breast papillary lesion (BPL) without atypia, complete resection of radiologic signal is recommended (Grade C). For BPL with atypia, complete excisional surgery is recommended (Grade C).

Collagen Type XI Alpha 1 Expression in Intraductal Papillomas Predicts Malignant Recurrence. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2015; 2015:812027. [PMID: 26448946 PMCID: PMC4584034 DOI: 10.1155/2015/812027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2015] [Accepted: 02/17/2015] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Despite the progress achieved in the treatment of breast cancer, there are still many unsolved clinical issues, being the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of papillary diseases, one of the highest challenges. Because of its unpredictable clinical behavior, treatment of intraductal papilloma has generated a great controversy. Even though considered as a benign lesion, it presents high rate of malignant recurrence. This is the reason why there are clinicians supporting a complete excision of the lesion, while others support an only expectant follow-up. Previous results of our group suggested that procollagen 11 alpha 1 (pro-COL11A1) expression correlates with infiltrating phenotype in breast lesions. We analyzed the correlation between expression of pro-COL11A1 in intraductal papilloma and their risk of malignant recurrence. Immunohistochemistry of pro-COL11A1 was performed in 62 samples of intraductal papilloma. Ten out 11 cases relapsed as carcinoma presents positive staining for COL11A1, while just 17 out of 51 cases with benign behaviour present immunostaining. There were significant differences (P < 0.0001) when comparing patients with malignant recurrence versus nonmalignant relapse patients. These data suggest that pro-COL11A1 expression is a highly sensitive biomarker to predict malignant relapse of intraductal papilloma and it can be used as indicative factor for prevention programs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this retrospective study was to assess the sonographic features of benign, high-risk, and malignant papillary lesions of the breast. METHODS We conducted a search of our institution's breast biopsy database for all papillary lesions with sonographic findings and final surgical pathologic diagnoses from January 1, 2004, to December 31, 2009. We retrospectively reviewed the breast sonographic findings of 23 benign papillomas, 14 papillomas with associated atypical ductal hyperplasia, and 14 papillary carcinomas, all surgically proven. These 51 lesions in 50 patients comprised our data set. The imaging reports, pathologic records, and surgical records of these patients were reviewed, and statistical analysis was performed. RESULTS The findings for 50 patients (age range, 26-92 years; mean, 55.2 years) with 51 lesions were reviewed. One patient had bilateral breast cancer. Size and margin features showed statistically significant differences (P < .05) between the lesions. Twelve (47.9%) benign papillomas, 10 (71.4%) high-risk lesions, and 13 (92.9%) malignant lesions were larger than 1 cm. Sixteen (69.6%) benign papillomas, 10 (71.4%) high-risk lesions, and only 4 (28.6%) malignant lesions had circumscribed margins. With regard to echo pattern, there was a statistically significant difference between the lesions (P< .01). Twenty (87.0%) benign papillomas, 4 (28.6%) high-risk lesions, and 10 (71.4%) malignant lesions were hypoechoic. Posterior sonographic features were also statistically significant (P < .05), with malignant and high-risk lesions being associated with posterior enhancement or shadowing. Another statistically significant difference (P < .01) was intralesional vascularity, which was seen more frequently with malignant lesions. Regardless of lesion type, the distance from the nipple, shape, orientation, surrounding tissue change, and associated calcifications were not significant. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that sonographic features that may potentially assist in differentiating papillary lesions include size, margin, echo pattern, posterior features, and intralesional vascularity.

Abstract
Peutz–Jeghers syndrome is a rare autosomal dominantly inherited condition, characterized by the presence of hamartomatous gastrointestinal polyps and mucocutaneous pigmentation. Patients with this syndrome can be associated with other neoplasms such as ovarian neoplasms known as sex-cord tumor with annular tubules that are associated in one third of the cases with this syndrome and other types of malignancies. We report a 42-year-old woman with a history of Peutz–Jeghers Syndrome and bilateral breast cancer that presented with abnormal uterine bleeding. Total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpino-oophorectomy was done and an ovarian sex cord tumor with annular tubules was incidentally diagnosed. By reviewing literatures and in agreement with previous studies we suggest routine screening for malignancies in patients with Peutz–Jeghers syndrome.

Abstract
High-risk lesions of the breast are lesions that confer an increased risk of breast cancer, either because of an increased probability of finding cancer associated with percutaneous biopsy findings or because of an increased probability of developing breast cancer over the long term. Atypical ductal hyperplasia found on percutaneous biopsy is generally excised, whereas lobular neoplasia lesions, including both atypical lobular hyperplasia and lobular carcinoma in situ, may be observed if radiologic and pathologic findings are concordant and there is no other high-risk lesion present.

Abstract
Most authors recommend excision of intraductal papillomas diagnosed on core needle biopsy. This leads to the question of whether or not excision is necessary for incidental intraductal papillomas on core needle biopsy as opposed to those corresponding to imaging findings. Using the pathology computerized data base we retrospectively identified 46 incidental intraductal papillomas diagnosed on core needle biopsy from 1/2000 to 12/2008. Clinical, radiologic, and pathologic information was gathered and correlated. All core needle biopsies were reviewed to confirm the diagnosis of incidental intraductal papillomas, and excision specimens reviewed when available. Of the 46 patients, follow-up information was available in only 38. The age of the patients ranged from 39 to 82 years (mean = 48 years). Most incidental intraductal papillomas were diagnosed by mammotome core needle biopsy (36 cases). A total of 33 cases were performed for calcifications with the following indications: clustered = 21, new = 4, pleomorphic = 3, increasing = 3, indeterminant = 2. The correlating diagnoses included the following: fibrocystic changes with calcium phosphate = 18 or calcium oxalate = 10, fibroadenoma with calcifications = 5. The three masses were: two cases of cystic papillary apocrine metaplasia (I Ultrasound and 1 MRI) and 1 fibroadenoma (Ultrasound). In all cases, the intraductal papillomas were ≤0.2 cm, were not associated with calcifications, and were incidental to them or the underlying mass. A total of 14 patients underwent excision, whereas the remaining 24 have remained radiologically stable for over 12 months. The excision specimen findings were: fibrocystic changes = 8 and intraductal papilloma = 6. With the exception of one case, all the intraductal papilloma remained incidental to imaging findings. In this solitary case, the calcifications were described as pleomorphic and corresponded to fibrocystic changes calcifications on core needle biopsy. However, on excision, residual pleomorphic calcifications on mammogram correlated with both fibrocystic changes and intraductal papilloma. No cases were upstaged on excision to atypical duct hyperplasia or intraductal or invasive carcinoma. With the exception of one case, all incidental intraductal papillomas diagnosed on core needle biopsy were either completely excised or remained incidental. The exception occurred due to sampling error and accounted for the change from an incidental intraductal papillomas on core needle biopsy to one that was associated with calcifications on excision. Given the complete lack of upstaging, it is difficult to recommend excision of incidental intraductal papillomas diagnosed on core needle biopsy provided the index lesion has been adequately sampled and radiologic follow-up is maintained.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the upstage rate from nonmalignant papillary breast lesions obtained at imaging-guided core needle biopsy (CNB) and if there are any clinical, imaging, or pathologic features that can be used to predict eventual upstaging to malignancy. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective case review was institutional review board approved and HIPAA compliant, with a waiver of informed consent. A database search (from January 2001 to March 2010) was performed to find patients with a nonmalignant papillary breast lesion diagnosed at CNB. Of the resulting 128 patients, 86 (67%) underwent surgical excision; 42 (33%) patients were observed with imaging, for a median observation time of 4.1 years (range, 1.0-8.6 years). Chart review was performed to determine pertinent features of each case. RESULTS Fourteen of 128 patients were subsequently found to have malignancy at excision, for an upstage rate of 11%. Nine (7%) of the 128 patients were subsequently found to have atypia at excision. Comparisons between patients with upstaged lesions and patients whose lesions were not upstaged demonstrated patients with upstaged lesions to be slightly older (65 vs 56 years, P=.01), more likely to have a mass than calcifications at imaging (P=.03), and to have had less tissue obtained at biopsy (three vs five cores obtained, P=.02; 14- vs 9-gauge needle used, P<.01; no vacuum assistance used, P<.01). Most strongly predictive of eventual malignancy, however, was whether the interpreting pathologist qualified the benign diagnosis at CNB with additional commentary (P<.01). CONCLUSION Given the substantial upstage rate (11%) of papillary lesions diagnosed at imaging-guided CNB, surgical excision is an appropriate management decision; however, careful evaluation in concert with an expert breast pathologist may allow for observation in appropriately selected patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The clinical management of nonmalignant breast papillary lesions diagnosed at core-needle biopsy (CNB) is controversial. A meta-analysis was performed to evaluate pooled estimates of the underestimation of malignant papillary lesions (which were diagnosed as nonmalignant lesions at CNB) and to survey factors that affect that underestimation. METHODS We searched for studies that provided data on CNB underestimates of malignant breast papillary lesions indexed in PUBMED. The pooled estimate for underestimation was calculated. The association between each variable and underestimation was investigated using either random- or fixed-effects logistic modeling. RESULTS A total of 34 studies, which included 2,236 nonmalignant breast papillary lesions diagnosed at CNB and histologically examined after surgical excision, were included. Of these, 346 nonmalignant lesions at CNB were upgraded to malignant after surgical excision. The pooled estimate for the percentage of underestimation was 15.7% [95% confidence interval (CI): 12.8-18.5%]. The factors associated with higher underestimation included atypical papillary lesions (P<0.001), positive mammographic findings (P=0.022), and article publication year before 2005 (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS It is recommended that atypical papillary lesions at CNB undergo surgical excision, and it is reasonable to follow patients with benign lesions with serial imaging. Lesion type, mammographic findings, and article publication year were significantly associated with underestimation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The need for surgical excision of benign papillary lesions diagnosed on core biopsy remains debatable. This lack of consensus arises because although there is a possibility of histological underestimation, there are as yet no reliable predictors of malignancy. We therefore aimed to evaluate the incidence of histological underestimation in our practice, and to identify factors that predict for this, in order to reduce unnecessary surgery without missing out on possible malignancy. METHODS Retrospective review of 106 patients diagnosed with a papillary lesion on percutaneous image-guided core biopsy was performed between 1 January 2005 and 31 December 2008. The presence of atypia on core biopsy and the presence of malignancy in the surgical specimen were correlated with standard clinical, radiological and pathological features. RESULTS Histological underestimation occurred in 15 of 81 patients (19%). Malignancy was more likely when atypia was present in the core biopsy (P= 0.04, OR 5.17). Otherwise, a final diagnosis of malignancy was not correlated with any clinical or radiological features (P > 0.05). The presence of atypia was also not correlated with any clinical or radiological features. CONCLUSION In our study, 19% of patients with a benign papillary lesion diagnosed on core biopsy were found to have atypical ductal hyperplasia or malignancy following surgery. In view of this, together with the absence of reliable predictive factors for malignancy, we recommend surgical excision of all papillary lesions diagnosed on core biopsy.

Abstract
Our goal was to assess the value of surgical excision of benign papillomas of the breast diagnosed on percutaneous core biopsy by determining the frequency of upgrade to malignancies and high risk lesions on a final surgical pathology. We reviewed 67 patients who had biopsies yielding benign papilloma and underwent subsequent surgical excision. Surgical pathology of the excised lesions was compared with initial core biopsy pathology results. 54 patients had concordant benign core and excisional pathology. Cancer (ductal carcinoma in situ and invasive ductal carcinoma) was diagnosed in five (7%) patients. Surgery revealed high-risk lesions in 8 (12%) patients, including atypical ductal hyperplasia, atypical lobular hyperplasia, and lobular carcinoma in situ. Cancer and high risk lesions accounted for 13 (19%) upstaging events from benign papilloma diagnosis. Our data suggests that surgical excision is warranted with core pathology of benign papilloma.

Abstract
Papillary lesions of the breast include a broad spectrum of lesions, from benign papillomas to papillary carcinomas. It is difficult to determine whether a lesion is benign or malignant based on the fragmented material of a core needle biopsy (CNB). This study evaluated patients with papillary lesions examined using CNB. We retrospectively reviewed 31 papillary lesions diagnosed using CNB between 2004 and 2007. The clinical findings of benign and malignant papillary lesions were compared. The average patient age was 48.9 years. Twelve patients presented with a discharge and 10 patients presented with a lump. Eight patients were asymptomatic. The initial diagnoses by CNB of the 31 lesions were 25 intraductal papillomas, 4 intracystic papillomas and 2 adenomas. After CNB, excisional biopsies were performed in 23 patients and biopsies with a Mammotome(®) in 2 patients. Seven patients underwent regular follow-up. Five (16%) of the 31 patients with papillary lesions were ultimately diagnosed with breast cancer. The average distance from the nipple to a tumor diagnosed as malignant was 2.46 cm, which was longer than for a tumor diagnosed as benign. Ultimately, 5 papillary lesions (16%) were diagnosed as breast cancer. To avoid overlooking a malignancy, surgical excision is advantageous for papillary lesions, particularly those located far from the nipple.

Abstract
Because lesions of the male breast have been exceeded in number by those of the female breast, marginal attention was given to these lesions in the past. Fortunately, this has changed over the years leading to an increased awareness about male breast cancer. Although male breast cancer constitutes only about 1% of all diagnosed breast cancer cases, an increased mortality is seen in this patient population. This is probably caused by late diagnosis as a consequence of low level of concern about breast cancer among male patients. However, the vast majority of lesions of the male breast are benign, gynecomastia being the number one cause of unilateral or bilateral breast mass. Since it is important to avoid unnecessary surgical treatment without missing malignancy, accurate diagnostic tools are necessary in order to triage these patients. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy has demonstrated excellent accuracy in the diagnosis and management of breast lesions in female patients. In addition, several authors have proven the value of this technique in the evaluation of lesions of the male breast. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy permits accurate diagnosis in many lesions arising in the male breast. It also allows gathering cytological material that can be used for ancillary studies which enhances the diagnostic value of this technique.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast papillomas often are diagnosed with core needle biopsy (CNB). Most studies support excision for atypical papillomas, because as many as one half will be upgraded to malignancy on final pathology. The literature is less clear on the management of papillomas without atypia on CNB. Our goal was to determine factors associated with pathology upgrade on excision. METHODS Our pathology database was searched for breast papillomas diagnosed by CNB during the past 10 years. We identified 277 charts and excluded lesions associated with atypia or malignancy on CNB. Two groups were identified: papillomas that were surgically excised (group 1) and those that were not (group 2). Charts were reviewed for the subsequent diagnosis of cancer or high-risk lesions. Appropriate statistical tests were used to analyze the data. RESULTS A total of 193 papillomas were identified. Eighty-two lesions were excised (42%). Caucasian women were more likely to undergo excision (p = 0.03). Twelve percent of excised lesions were upgraded to malignancy. Increasing age was a predictor of upgrading, but this was not significant. Clinical presentation, lesion location, biopsy technique, and breast cancer history were not associated with pathology upgrade. Two lesions in group 2 ultimately required excision due to enlargement, and both were upgraded to malignancy. CONCLUSIONS Twenty-four percent of papillomas diagnosed on CNB have upgraded pathology on excision--half to malignancy. All of the cancers diagnosed were stage 0 or I. For patients in whom excision was not performed, 2 of 111 papillomas were later excised and upgraded to malignancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was designed to evaluate the clinical and pathologic parameters of benign papillomas diagnosed on core needle biopsy (CNB) and predict malignancy risk after surgical excision. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed clinicopathologic findings for 160 CNB-diagnosed benign papillomas followed by surgical excision from 154 patients. RESULTS Ten (6.3%) of the excised lesions were diagnosed as malignant. Univariate analysis showed that those that were palpable on physical examination, detected as a mass on mammography, or >1 cm on sonography were significantly associated with malignancy. In multivariate analysis, lesions that were palpable (odds ratio (OR), 29.2; 95% confidence interval (CI), 4.06-209.58; P = 0.001) or detected as a mass (OR, 5.68; 95% CI 1.08-29.87; P = 0.04) remained significantly associated with malignancy. In a CART analysis, including all variables, lesions that were palpable and associated with a mass on mammogram were confirmed as malignant. CONCLUSIONS Breast lesions diagnosed as benign papillomas on CNB had a 6.3% risk of being malignant. The risk was highest for lesions that were palpable and detectable as a mass on a mammogram. In addition, the low-risk patients avoid immediate surgical excision, although they should be followed carefully.

Abstract
Core needle biopsy (CNB) is increasingly being used in the investigation of breast disease whether this is asymptomatic and suspected after screening mammography, or presents symptomatically in the patient. In most cases, the result of the procedure provides a definitive diagnosis or at least provides information that is used to plan the further management of the patient. There are, however, a number of unresolved issues with the use of CNB; for example, with regard to the amount of information that can be reliably derived from CNB or with regard to the management of the patient after some CNB diagnoses. Oestrogen and progesterone receptors and HER2 are reported on both core biopsies and excision specimens, but there continues to be debate over which represents the more appropriate specimen type on which to perform these tests. There are a number of possible diagnoses after CNB for which the management is not straightforward and around which there may be controversy, or just a lack of sufficient evidence to support a definite management plan. These 'lesions of uncertain malignant potential' include papillary lesions, fibroepithelial lesions with cellular stroma, mucocoele-like lesions and radial scars. Currently, these are removed surgically but there may be an argument for more conservative management including vacuum-assisted core excision in some cases.

Can galactography-guided stereotactic, 11-gauge, vacuum-assisted breast biopsy of intraductal lesions serve as an alternative to surgical biopsy? Eur Radiol 2009; 19:2878-85.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the value of galactography-guided, stereotactic, vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (VABB) for the assessment of intraductal breast lesions and its potential as a therapeutic tool that could eliminate the need for surgical excision. Eighteen patients (median age 64 years, range 37-80) with nipple discharge and galactography-verified intraductal lesions underwent galactography-guided, stereotactic, 11-gauge VABB followed by surgery. Histopathology findings from VABB and subsequent surgery were compared. Underestimation and false-negative rates were assessed. After VABB, histopathology revealed invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) in three (17%), ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) in six (33%), high-risk lesions in six (33%) and benign lesions in three (17%) cases. After surgical biopsy, histopathology confirmed the previously established diagnosis in 11 lesions (61%). The underestimation rate for high-risk lesions and DCIS was 50% (6/12). The false-negative rate was 7% (1/14). Histopathology examination after surgery showed that not a single lesion had been completely removed at VABB. Galactography-guided VABB is a feasible diagnostic tool. However, its value as a therapeutic procedure is limited because of the high number of underestimated and missed lesions and because of the histopathological detection of lesions' remnants in every case. Surgical excision should be the therapeutic gold standard in cases of pathological nipple discharge and galactography abnormalities.

Abstract
CONTEXT Interpretation of papillary lesions of the breast remains a challenging task because of the wide morphologic spectrum encountered in the benign, atypical, and malignant subtypes. Data on clinical significance and outcome of papillary lesions, with superimposed atypia or areas similar to ductal carcinoma in situ partially replacing the benign elements, are sparse. Furthermore, complete excision of even a fully developed papillary carcinoma confined to a dilated or cystic duct is associated with an excellent prognosis, whereas a complex papilloma extending into multiple branches of a duct may ultimately recur as a carcinoma because of incomplete excision of microscopic foci. This makes an outcome-based classification difficult. OBJECTIVE An arbitrary yet practical approach to classification is outlined, with discussion of methods to circumvent the various diagnostic difficulties. The limitations in precise diagnosis of papillary lesions in aspirates are addressed, and the implications of finding papillary lesions in core biopsies are discussed. Although the focus is on intraductal lesions, associated invasive carcinomas and invasive micropapillary carcinoma are also presented. DATA SOURCES The literature on papillary lesions and invasive micropapillary carcinoma is reviewed. CONCLUSIONS It would be prudent to completely excise any papillary lesion that has not been entirely removed by the initial core biopsy. The optimal management of localized papillary lesions is complete excision with a small rim of uninvolved breast tissue without any prior needle instrumentation if and when the papillary nature can be determined by imaging. Thus managed, most of these lesions behave indolently, and outcome is usually excellent.

Abstract
Papillary lesions of the breast represent a heterogeneous group with differing biological behaviour. Correct diagnosis is crucial but may be difficult, as many benign and malignant papillary lesions have similar appearances. Immunohistochemistry plays a useful role in their differentiation. Myoepithelial markers can help in differentiating papilloma from papillary carcinoma, as the former usually shows a continuous layer of myoepithelial cells. In intracystic papillary carcinoma, there is controversy as to the presence of a complete myoepithelial cell layer around these lesions. p63 is the marker of choice as the staining is nuclear, cross-reactivity is minimal, and sensitivity is high. Papilloma may frequently be complicated by superimposed different types of epithelial hyperplasia, which range from usual to atypical or even ductal carcinoma in situ, and they many be morphologically similar. Basal cytokeratins (CKs) are useful to differentiate these entities; as usual hyperplasia is positive for basal CKs with a mosaic staining pattern. CK5/6 is probably the best marker. Neuroendocrine markers (chromogranin A and synaptophysin) may be positive in papillary carcinoma, particularly in the solid type, and there may be some overlap with the ductal carcinoma in situ with spindle cells or endocrine ductal carcinoma in situ. A panel of CK5/6, p63 and neuroendocrine markers can be useful in the diagnostic investigation of problematic papillary lesions of the breast. As the experience with these markers remains rather limited, it is too early to recommend basing treatment choices on these marker studies alone. Complete removal of lesion is probably still the treatment of choice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Papillary breast lesions comprise a spectrum of histopathologic diagnoses ranging from benign papillomas to papillary carcinomas. There is ongoing controversy regarding the management of papillary lesions diagnosed by core needle biopsy (CNB). Some authors advocate observation of papillary lesions when the CNB is benign, while others recommend surgical excision of all papillary lesions. The current study assessed the adequacy of CNB in evaluating papillary breast lesions. METHODS A search of the pathology database at our institution identified 122 papillary lesions diagnosed by CNB. The study population consisted of 71 papillary lesions that were subsequently surgically excised. RESULTS Of the 71 papillary lesions excised, 8 were malignant, 16 were atypical, and 47 were benign at the time of CNB. Of the 47 papillary lesions thought to be benign, 13 (28%) revealed atypia and 4 (9%) revealed malignancy upon surgical excision. Of the 13 atypical papillary lesions on CNB, 7 lesions (54%) were associated with malignancy upon excision. Slightly over half the upgrades were due to finding atypia or malignancy in the tissue surrounding the papillary lesion. The total rate of upgrades from the CNB diagnosis to the excisional diagnosis was 38%. CONCLUSIONS When a core biopsy of a papillary lesion is encountered, there is a strong likelihood of discovering atypia or malignancy in the index lesion or in close proximity. Therefore, surgical excision should be performed to avoid missing a malignancy and to allow for accurate breast cancer risk assessment that can impact survival and decisions regarding chemoprevention.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the clinical and radiological presentations of papillary breast lesions and to evaluate the performance of core needle breast biopsy in papillary lesions. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively studied 55 papillary breast lesions in 46 patients aged 28 to 87 years diagnosed using core needle biopsy in the period 1994-2005. We reviewed the clinical and radiological presentations of the lesions, the findings at histological study after percutaneous biopsy, and the correlation of these findings with those of the surgical biopsy (44 cases) and/or radiological follow-up (42 cases). RESULTS The most common mammographic presentation was circumscribed or ill-defined, single or multiple nodules. Ill-defined lesions were significantly associated with malignancy (p < 0.05). The results of the percutaneous biopsy were: benign papillary lesion (n = 32), papillary lesion with atypia (n = 9), and malignant papillary lesion (n = 14). The diagnostic accuracy of core needle biopsy calculated from the 44 cases with surgical confirmation was: sensitivity 63%, specificity 100%, predictive positive value 100%, predictive negative value 73%, and rate of underestimation 25%. During follow-up, increased lesion size or the appearance of new lesions was seen in four patients. CONCLUSIONS The diagnosis can be suspected in cases of postmenopausal patients with multiple circumscribed or ill-defined, solid or mixed lesions at ultrasound study. Although the finding of an invasive malignant papillary lesion after percutaneous biopsy enables treatment to be planned, in the remaining situations (benign papillary lesion, with atypia, or carcinoma in situ) underestimation is common and the lesion should be surgically excised. Vacuum-assisted biopsy systems might improve these results.

Abstract
The authors review knowledge of the clinical, imaging and pathological diagnosis of mastopathy syndrome and the issues of its therapy and care. They observe that no unified nomenclature exists, all the disciplines judge the idea of mastopathy differently. Clinical and imaging diagnosis is uncertain, the correct diagnosis can be established only by the pathologist. The role of surgery is minimal. The precancerous nature of mastopathy is also discussed, the rate of malignant transformation is low. Malignant transformation of benign lesions is very rare. The most important tools are close observation, systematic care of patients by a team of professionals, possibly by the same persons, in the same institute. Further research, and more exact definitions are necessary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of radiation and endocrine therapy in the treatment of intracystic papillary carcinoma (IPC) remains unclear. The aim of the current study was to review the management of IPC in order to determine factors associated with use of adjuvant therapies. METHODS A retrospective review of our surgical and pathology databases from 1995-2006 identified 45 women with IPC. These patients were further divided into those with pure IPC (n = 21), IPC with associated ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) (n = 18), and IPC with associated microinvasion with or without DCIS (n = 6). Patient characteristics were compared between groups using the chi-square test. RESULTS Patients with IPC and microinvasion were more likely to undergo an axillary staging procedure (6/6, 100%) compared to patients with pure IPC (6/21, 29%) or IPC with DCIS (5/18, 28%) (P < .001). Patients with pure IPC were less likely to have radiation therapy than patients with IPC and DCIS or microinvasion (P < .001). However, within the subset of patients with pure IPC, women less than 50 years of age were more likely to have radiation therapy than those older than 50 years (P < .001). Patients with IPC and DCIS or microinvasion had significantly increased use of endocrine therapy versus patients with pure IPC (P < .01). CONCLUSIONS In our patient population, those patients with IPC and associated DCIS or microinvasion are treated with adjuvant radiation and endocrine therapy on the basis of this associated pathology. The use of adjuvant radiation and/or endocrine therapy should be considered in patients with pure IPC who are of young age (<50 years).

Abstract
BACKGROUND The necessity for surgical excision of papillary lesions identified on percutaneous breast biopsy remains controversial. We reviewed data from patients with papillary lesions found on core needle biopsies to identify features associated with carcinoma. METHODS A retrospective chart review was performed on patients with papillary lesions diagnosed from image-guided breast biopsies over a 10-year period. Patients had surgical excision or were followed-up radiographically for a 2-year minimum. RESULTS Papillary lesions were identified in 154 core needle biopsies. Ninety-five lesions were diagnosed as either benign or atypical. Eighty-nine of these patients had surgical excisions of their lesions. Malignancy was discovered in 22 (25%) of these lesions. Only atypical lesions on biopsy were malignant (P < .005). Forty-six percent of patients age 65 or older were found to have cancer at surgical excision (P < .01). CONCLUSIONS Papillary lesions found on core needle biopsy frequently harbor malignancy (25%). Atypia and age 65 or older are significant risk factors for malignancy.
