Abstract
Introduction Management of intraductal papillomas (IDPs) diagnosed on core needle biopsy (CNB) remains controversial. We report our experience of IDPs identified on CNB, our institutional rates of upgradation to atypia/malignancy as well as radiologic/pathologic features that may allow selection for surgery as well as those for safe observation. Methods The study is a retrospective review of patient records from 2012 to 2019, at a tertiary care hospital in Pakistan. Data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), version 21.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY). Associations between various patient factors were assessed using Pearson's chi-square test. Results This study included a total of 55 female patients with IDPs, with a mean age of 54.67 ± 15.57 years. On CNB, 69.1% (n = 38) of patients had IDP without atypia while 30.9% (n = 17) had IDP with atypia, with single IDPs being the most common lesions on excisional biopsy. Overall, of all CNB-diagnosed IDPs, only 4/55 (7.3%) demonstrated upgradation (3/4 to DCIS, 1/4 showed atypia) on excisional biopsy, and all these upgraded cases had failed to demonstrate atypia on initial CNB. Conclusion CNB-identified cases of IDPs are rarely upgraded on excision and thus routine excision in all cases may be unnecessary. Appropriate patient selection based on radiology-pathology findings should be done. Those with suspicious findings on imaging as well as those that demonstrate atypia on CNB must be excised.

Abstract
Intraductal papillomas (IDPs), including central papilloma and peripheral papilloma, are common in the female population. Due to the lack of specific clinical manifestations of IDPs, it is easy to misdiagnose or miss diagnose. The difficulty of differential diagnosis using imaging techniques also contributes to these conditions. Histopathology is the gold standard for the diagnosis of IDPs while the possibility of under sample exists in the percutaneous biopsy. There have been some debates about how to treat asymptomatic IDPs without atypia diagnosed on core needle biopsy (CNB), especially when the upgrade rate to carcinoma is considered. This article concludes that further surgery is recommended for IDPs without atypia diagnosed on CNB who have high-risk factors, while appropriate imaging follow-up may be suitable for those without risk factors.

Abstract
The vast majority of image-detected breast abnormalities are diagnosed by percutaneous core needle biopsy (CNB) in contemporary practice. For frankly malignant lesions diagnosed by CNB, the standard practice of excision and multimodality therapy have been well-defined. However, for high-risk and selected benign lesions diagnosed by CNB, there is less consensus on optimal patient management and the need for immediate surgical excision. Here we outline the arguments for and against the practice of routine surgical excision of commonly encountered high-risk and selected benign breast lesions diagnosed by CNB. The entities reviewed include atypical ductal hyperplasia, atypical lobular hyperplasia, lobular carcinoma in situ, intraductal papillomas, and radial scars. The data in the peer-reviewed literature confirm the benefits of a patient-centered, multidisciplinary approach that moves away from the reflexive "yes" or "no" for routine excision for a given pathologic diagnosis.

Abstract
Surgical excision of breast intraductal papilloma (IDP) without atypia diagnosed on core needle biopsy (CNB) is controversial as the risk of upgrade to malignant lesions is not well established. This study investigates upgrade rates of benign and atypical IDP to ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and invasive carcinoma (IC) and clinicopathologic predictors. We identified 556 cases of IDP diagnosed on CNB at a single institution from 2010-2020 after excluding patients with a history of breast carcinoma, ipsilateral high-risk lesion, radiologic/pathologic discordance, or less than 2 years of follow-up if no excision within one year. Of these, 97 biopsies were consistent with atypical IDP and 459 were benign IDP. Surgical excision was performed for 318 (57.2%), and the remaining 238 (42.8%) underwent active monitoring. The upgrade rate for IDP without atypia was 2/225 (0.9%; 1 DCIS and 1 IC). Of 93 surgically excised atypical IDPs, 19/93 (20.4%) upgraded (14 DCIS and 5 IC). Of 238 non-excised IDPs followed clinically (range 24-140 months, mean 60 months), there was no subsequent breast cancer diagnosed at the IDP site on follow-up. Mean age of patients was 56 yr±12.6sd without upgrade, 63 yr±10.6sd (p value=0.027) with DCIS, and 61 yr±10.8sd (p value=0.35) with IC. Atypical IDP was more likely to upgrade if biopsied by stereotactic guidance (8/19, 42.1% p=0.035). At our institution, we had an exceedingly low upgrade rate for benign IDP. Overall, patients with upgrade to DCIS were older. For atypical IDP, upgrade was seen in higher proportions of stereotactic biopsies.

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%.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current standard management for intraductal papilloma (IDP) diagnosed at biopsy indicates complete surgical resection, but there are increasing controversies over whether and when routine excision is indeed necessary. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the carcinoma upgrade rate and identify the associated predictive factors for IDP diagnosed at biopsy by meta-analysis. METHODS We searched the PubMed and EMBASE databases for studies published from 2009 to 2020 that investigated the upgrade rate and predictive factors of IDP diagnosed at biopsy. RESULTS A total of 7016 IDP cases diagnosed at biopsy and histologically examined after surgical excision were pooled from 44 original studies. The pooled prevalence of IDP in breast biopsy findings was 4.6% [95% confidence interval (CI) 4.4-4.7%] and the majority of IDP tumors were benign. The pooled upgrade rates to carcinoma for benign IDP and atypical IDP were 5.0% (95% CI 4.4-5.5%) and 36.0% (95% CI 32.7-39.2%), respectively. In addition, we identified 10 predictive upgrade factors for benign IDP, including Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) 5, BI-RADS 4C, mass and calcification in the mammographic finding, bloody nipple discharge, imaging-histological discordance, peripheral IDP, palpable mass, BI-RADS 4B, microcalcification, and lesion size ≥ 1 cm. The upgrade rates associated with these predictive factors ranged from 7.3 to 31.1%. CONCLUSION Surgical excision appears a reasonable recommendation for atypical IDP. Patients with benign IDP exhibiting one or more predictive factors might benefit from surgical excision, while patients with asymptomatic benign IDP without these predictive factors can be managed by imaging surveillance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The optimal management of intraductal papillomas (IPs) without atypia diagnosed on needle core biopsy (NCB) is unclear. This study analyzed the malignancy risk of immediately excised IPs and characterized the behavior of IPs under active surveillance (AS). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the pathology and imaging records of patients diagnosed with IPs without atypia on NCB during a 10-year period (1999-2019). The malignancy upgrade rate was assessed in patients who had an immediate surgical excision, and the rates of both radiographic progression and development of malignancy were assessed in a cohort of patients undergoing AS. RESULTS The inclusion criteria were met in 152 patients with 175 IPs with a mean age of 51 ± 13 years. The average size of the IPs on initial imaging was 8 ± 4 mm. Most of the lesions (57%, n = 99) were immediately excised, whereas 76 (43%) underwent AS with interval imaging with a median follow-up period of 15 months (range, 5-111 months). Among the immediately excised IPs, surgical pathology revealed benign findings in 97% (n = 96) and ductal carcinoma in situ in 3% (n = 3). In the AS cohort, 72% (n = 55) of the IPs remained stable, and 25% (n = 19) resolved or decreased in size. At 2 years, 4% had increased in size on imaging and were subsequently excised, with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS, n = 1) and benign pathology (n = 1) noted on final pathology. CONCLUSIONS In a large series of breast IPs without atypia, no invasive carcinoma was observed after immediate excision, and 96% of the lesions had not progressed on AS. This suggests that patients with IP shown on NCB can safely undergo AS, with surgery reserved for radiographic lesion progression.

Abstract
Papillary neoplasms of the breast are a heterogeneous group of epithelial tumors nearly entirely composed of papillae. Their classification rests on the characteristics of the epithelium and the presence and distribution of the myoepithelial cells along the papillae and around the tumor. Papillary neoplasms of the breast can be diagnostically challenging, especially if only core needle biopsy (CNB) material is available. This review summarizes salient morphological and immunohistochemical features, clinical presentation, and differential diagnoses of papillary neoplasms of the breast. We include a contemporary appraisal of the upgrade rate to carcinoma (invasive carcinoma and ductal carcinoma in situ [DCIS]) and atypical hyperplasias in surgical excision specimens obtained following CNB diagnosis of papilloma without atypia, and a review of the available follow-up data in cases without immediate surgical excision.

Abstract
Papillary breast lesions are rare breast tumors that comprise a broad spectrum of diseases. Pathologically they present as mass-like projections attached to the wall of the ducts, supported by fibrovascular stalks lined by epithelial cells. On mammogram they appear as masses that can be associated with microcalcifications. Ultrasound is the most used imaging modality. On ultrasound papillary lesions appear as homogeneous solid lesions or complex intracystic lesions. A nonparallel orientation, an echogenic halo or posterior acoustic enhancement associated with microcalcifications are highly suggestive of malignancy. MRI has proven to be useful to establish the extent of the lesion. Core needle biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosis. Surgical excision is usually recommended, although treatment for papillomas without atypia is still controversial.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to determine the upgrade rate of image-guided core needle biopsy (CNB)-proven benign breast intraductal papillomas (IDPs) without atypia to high-risk benign lesions or malignancy after surgical excision. METHODS A retrospective database search at a single institution identified 102 adult female patients with benign breast IDPs without atypia diagnosed on imaging-guided CNBs who subsequently had surgical excisions between 2011 and 2016. Patient characteristics, imaging features, biopsy techniques, and the pathology reports from imaging-guided CNBs and subsequent surgical excisions were reviewed. The upgrade rate to malignancies or high-risk benign lesions was determined at the patient level. RESULTS The upgrade rate to malignancy was 2.9% (3/102), including two cases of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and one case of microinvasive (< 1 mm) ductal carcinoma arising from DCIS. The upgrade rate to high-risk benign lesions was 7.8% (8/102), with seven cases of atypical ductal hyperplasia and one case of atypical lobular hyperplasia. A personal history of breast cancer and a larger mean lesion size were significantly associated with an upgrade to malignancy (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The management of benign breast IDPs without atypia detected on imaging-guided CNBs is controversial. Our results suggest risk stratification is important in approaching these patients. Although surgical excision should be considered for all benign breast IDPs without atypia, observation with serial imaging may be appropriate in selected low-risk patients. This approach will save many women from surgeries and decrease the cost of medical care.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the surgical upgrade rate to malignancy and high-risk lesions in cases of papilloma without atypia diagnosed with imaging-guided percutaneous core needle biopsy (CNB) and to determine whether any lesion imaging features, biopsy techniques, and pathological factors can predict lesion upgrade to help guide clinical management. MATERIALS AND METHODS Benign papillomas without atypia (n = 399) diagnosed with CNB were retrospectively reviewed. The surgical upgrade rate to malignancy or high-risk lesion (atypical ductal hyperplasia, atypical lobular hyperplasia, lobular carcinoma in-situ, flat epithelial atypia and atypical papilloma) was determined. Detection modality (i.e. mammography, ultrasonography (US), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)), lesion type and size, biopsy-guidance modality (US, stereotactic, MRI), biopsy needle size (<14 G vs ≥14 G), use of vacuum assistance, and presenting symptoms were statistically analyzed. The reference standard for evaluation of upgrade was either excision or at least 24 months of imaging follow-up. Chi Square test and Fisher exact tests were performed for categorical variables, and the Mann-Whitney-U test was used for continuous variables. RESULTS Ultrasound was the predominant biopsy modality (78.4 %, p < 0.001). Of the 399 benign papilloma lesions in 329 women, 239 (59.9 %) were excised and 93 others were followed for at least 24 months (total of 332). Of these 332 lesions, 7 (2.1 %) were upgraded to ductal carcinoma in-situ and 41 (12.3 %) to high-risk lesions at excision. Larger lesion size (≥15 mm, p = 0.009), smaller biopsy needle size (≥14 G, p = 0.027), and use of spring-loaded biopsy device (p = 0.012) were significantly associated with upgrade to atypia. Only lesion size (≥15 mm, p = 0.02) was associated with upgrade to cancer. CONCLUSION Upgrade to malignancy of biopsy-proven benign papillomas without atypia at the time of surgery was sufficiently low (2.1 %) to support non-operative management. Surgery may be performed for selected cases- those with larger lesion size and those whose biopsies were performed with smaller spring-loaded biopsy needles.

Abstract
Background Breast intraductal papilloma is a heterogeneous group. The aim of the study is to investigate the intraductal breast papilloma and its coexisting lesions retrospectively in real‐world practice. Methods We retrospectively identified 4450 intraductal breast papilloma and its coexisting lesions. Results About 18.36% of intraductal papilloma coexisted with malignant lesions of the breast, 37.33% coexisted with atypia hyperplasia (AH), 25.24% coexisted with benign lesions, and only 19.10% coexisted without concomitant lesions. In addition, 36.80% of intraductal breast papilloma had nipple discharge, 51.46% had a palpable breast mass, and 16.45% had both nipple discharge and a palpable breast mass. About 28.18% experienced discomfort or were asymptomatic. Furthermore, 98.99% had ultrasound abnormalities, and 53.06% had intraductal hypoechogenicity upon ultrasound. 31.89% had mammographic distortion, and 14.45% had microcalcification upon mammography. Intraductal breast papilloma with malignancy had significant correlations with clinical manifestations. Conclusion Coexisting malignancy was also related to ultrasound abnormality (BIRADS 4C and 5), mammographic distortion, and microcalcification upon mammography but was not related to the intraductal hypoechoic upon ultrasound. Coexisting atypical hyperplasia correlated with nipple discharge but not palpable mass, mammographic distortion, or intraductal hypoechoic upon ultrasound. The coexisting AH was also related to abnormality upon ultrasound or microcalcification compared with the benign lesions. The intraductal papilloma coexists with malignancy or AH accounted for more than 50%, and the clinical information on papilloma and its coexisting lesions is nonspecific. We recommended surgical treatment for benign intraductal papillary lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Papillary breast lesions may be benign, atypical, and malignant lesions. Pathological and clinical differentiation of breast papillomas can be a challenge. Unlike malignant lesions, benign breast papillomas are not classically associated with lymph node and distant metastasis. We report a unique case of a recurrent, benign breast papilloma presenting as an aggressive malignant tumor. CASE PRESENTATION Our patient was a 56-year-old postmenopausal African American woman who was followed in the breast clinic with a long history of multiple breast papillomas. She underwent multiple resections over the course of 7-9 years. After being lost to follow-up for 2 years, she once again presented with a slowly enlarging left breast mass. Subsequent imaging revealed a predominantly cystic mass in the left breast, as well as a suspicious hypermetabolic internal mammary node and a hypermetabolic nodule in the pretracheal space. Biopsy of the internal mammary node demonstrated papillary neoplasm with benign morphology and immunostains positive for estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2/Neu. Due to the clinical picture concerning for malignancy, the patient was then started on endocrine therapy with palbociclib and letrozole before surgery. She then underwent simple mastectomy and sentinel lymph node dissection with negative nodes and pathology once again revealing benign papillary neoplasm. She underwent adjuvant chest wall radiation for 6 weeks and received letrozole following completion of her radiation therapy. She was without evidence of disease 30 months after surgery. CONCLUSIONS We present an unusual case of multiple recurrent peripheral papillomas with entirely benign histologic features exhibiting malignant behavior over a protracted period of many years, with an invasion of pectoralis musculature and possibly internal mammary and mediastinal nodes. Her treatment course included multiple surgeries (ultimately mastectomy), radiation therapy, and endocrine therapy.

Abstract
Core needle biopsy (CNB) is the most common sampling technique for the histologic evaluation of breast abnormalities. Diagnosing benign proliferative, borderline and some in-situ lesions in CNB is challenging and subject to a significant degree of interobserver variability. In addition, due to the inherent limitations of CNB, "upgrading" to a more significant pathology at excision is an important consideration for some lesions. Pathologists carry a major responsibility in patient diagnosis, risk stratification and management. Familiarity with the histologic features and the clinical significance of these common and problematic lesions encountered in CNB is necessary for adequate treatment and patient follow-up. This review will focus on benign, atypical and in-situ epithelial proliferations, papillary lesions, radial sclerosing lesions, adenosis and cellular fibroepithelial lesions. Highlights of histologic features, useful strategies for accurate diagnosis, basic immunohistochemistry and management will be presented.

Abstract
Evaluation of radiologically detected breast lesions is a common task in surgical pathology. Some benign lesions on biopsy are associated with an upgrade to in situ or invasive carcinoma on excision. The non-atypical breast papilloma has published upgrade rates of 0 to 29%. Traditionally, papillomas have been managed surgically, but the wide range of upgrade rates has raised uncertainty about the need for routine surgical excision. This study aims to identify risk factors associated with upgrade and determine the upgrade rate of non-atypical papillomas at our institution. In a retrospective review of pathology reports, we identified 266 patients with a diagnosis of benign papilloma on breast core biopsy. One hundred eighty-two patients underwent surgical resection. The final surgical pathology reports of all patients were reviewed and divided into one of two groups-benign or malignant. Twenty-one patients had a final diagnosis of in situ or invasive carcinoma, resulting in an upgrade rate of 12%. Radiologically detected lesions with calcifications were at higher risk for upgrade (OR = 4.45, 95% CI 1.08-18.27) than lesions without calcifications. Additionally, advanced patient age (OR = 1.07, 95% CI 1.03-1.13) and lesion size greater than 0.5 cm (OR = 2.59, 95% CI 0.38-17.48) was associated with upgrade to malignancy. Routine surgical excision of all papillomas is not recommended. Younger patients without high-risk features may benefit from clinical and radiologic follow-up alone. Accurate risk stratification will spare low-risk women unnecessary surgery.

Abstract
Intracystic lesions of the breast prove to be benign more often than malignancy. Most intracystic lesions are benign papillomas. Generally sizes of cysts that contain papilloma are small. Relatively cysts that contain papillary carcinoma are large. We present a 53-year-old with a papilloma in a large cyst of the breast that presented a painless palpable mass. Excisional biopsy may be needed to make a proper diagnosis for the suspicious lesion.
Introduction Intracystic lesions of the breast prove to be benign more often than malignancy, most intracystic lesions are benign papillomas. Generally sizes of cysts that contain papilloma are small. Relatively cysts that contain papillary carcinoma are large. A papilloma in a large cyst of the Breast is rare. Presentation of case We report a rare case of a papilloma in a large cyst of the breast that presented a painless palpable mass. A 53-yr-old woman noticed palpable mass in her right breast. Ultrasonography indicated a 7 × 7 cm sized large cyst. There is a 2 × 2.5 cm sized hyper-echoic, polypoid mass in the cyst. On fine-needle aspiration was not obtained malignant cells. Excisional biopsy was done. Pathologic finding was papilloma. Discussion Tumors in a large cyst of the breast is difficult in distinguish benign from malignancy by preoperative imaging, cytological and histological study. Conclusion Excisional biopsy should be performed before cancer surgery such as mastectomy to manage the cysts with intracystic growths.

Abstract
The distinction between benign and malignant papilloma of the breast through percutaneous needle biopsy can be difficult because of limited samples; the underestimation rate can be up to 25%. The aim of this study is to identify clinical and histological factors associated with underestimation, invasive ductal carcinoma, or ductal in-situ carcinoma (DCIS) of the breast found in surgical specimens from papillary lesions. This may contribute toward selection of patients for a follow-up strategy without the need for surgical excision. From a database of 3563 patients, we identified 85 with intraductal papilloma between 2007 and 2013 who had undergone breast-imaging studies, percutaneous needle biopsy, and surgical resection of the lesion. Central papillomas normally present with a palpable mass, whereas peripheral papillomas generally do not have clinical manifestations (microcalcifications); both central and peripheral papillomas were related to atypical lesions, 13.5 and 15.4%, respectively. Among the 59 cases of central papillomas, there were four cases of underestimation, three DCIS and one invasive ductal carcinoma (6.8%). Among the 26 cases of peripheral papillomas, there was one case of DCIS (3.8%), with a total underestimation rate of 5.8%; all underestimated lesions measured more than 1 cm. The median size was 11 mm at mammography and 19 mm at ultrasound. Our data suggest that lesions less than 1 cm in size, without atypia and concordant imaging and clinical findings, may not require surgical resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The management of intraductal papillomas (IDPs) diagnosed on core needle biopsy (CNB) remains controversial regarding whether excision is required. We evaluated whether excision of IDPs might be overtreatment based on a consecutive patient population where all IDPs were routinely excised. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the records of consecutive patients treated with excision of IDPs at our institution from 2009 to 2016. We evaluated the rate of upgrade of IDPs on CNB and factors predicting for malignant upgrade. RESULTS Of 153 CNB specimens, 136 (88.9%) were IDPs without atypia and 14 (9.2%) showed atypia. The overall upgrade rate on final pathology was 7.3% with 1.3% for invasive cancer, 2.7% for ductal carcinoma in situ, and 3.3% for atypical ductal hyperplasia. Of the 14 patients with atypia on CNB, two of these patients (14.2%) were found to have ductal carcinoma in situ. In the absence of atypia on CNB, upgrade rates were 1.5% for invasive and 1.5% for in situ carcinoma. Personal history of breast cancer and magnetic resonance imaging-guided biopsy predicted for malignant upgrade. CONCLUSIONS IDPs on CNB have a low chance of harboring an occult malignancy. Given the low probability of upgrade to invasive breast cancer, it is reasonable to consider watchful surveillance in the absence of a prior personal history of breast cancer or atypia on CNB.

Abstract
To investigate the malignancy rate of retroareolar masses and intraductal abnormalities discovered in asymptomatic females during screening whole breast ultrasound (US-S) and determine if biopsy can be avoided. METHODS: This is a HIPAA compliant retrospective study. Our radiology electronic medical records were searched for the phrases "retroareolar mass" or "intraductal mass" combined with "screening whole breast ultrasound" performed between 10/1/2009 and 5/30/2015. Inclusion criteria included retroareolar masses in asymptomatic females with normal mammography, mammographically dense breast tissue and imaging or biopsy follow-up. RESULTS: 1136 charts were reviewed. 87 BI-RADS 3 and 4 retroareolar findings were included in final analysis. The average lesion size was 9.5 mm (range 4-28 mm). 47/87 lesions were classified as BI-RADS 3 and 40/87 BI-RADS 4. Of the 47 BI-RADS 3 lesions, 36 were stable on follow-up; 6 benign lesions were biopsied at patients' request; and 5 biopsied due to suspicious interval change on follow-up imaging, including 4 benign lesions and a 5 mm Grade 2 ductal carcinoma in situ . 3/40 BI-RADS 4 lesions were not biopsied and stable at follow-up; 37/40 lesions underwent benign biopsy. The malignancy rate of BI-RADS 3 and 4 lesions was 2.1% [CI (0.4-11.1)] and 0% [CI (0.0-8.8)], respectively. The overall combined malignancy rate was 1/87 [1.1%, CI (0.2-6.2)]. CONCLUSION: The malignancy rate for BI-RADS 3 and 4 retroareolar masses and intraductal abnormalities detected on US-S is low (<2%). ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: Careful imaging surveillance in lieu of biopsy of these lesions may be appropriate in asymptomatic females with negative mammography.
