Abstract
Vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (VABB) guided by digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) represents one of the best instruments to obtain a histological diagnosis of suspicious lesions with no ultrasound correlation or those which are visible only on DBT. After a review of the literature, we retrospectively analyzed the DBT-guided VABBs performed from 2019 to 2022 at our department. Descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation and χ2 test were used to compare distributions of age, breast density (BD) and early performance measures including histopathology. We used kappa statistics to evaluate the agreement between histological assessment and diagnosis. Finally, we compared our experience to the literature to provide indications for clinical practice. We included 85 women aged 41-84 years old. We identified 37 breast cancers (BC), 26 stage 0 and 11 stage IA. 67.5% of BC was diagnosed in women with high BD. The agreement between VABB and surgery was 0.92 (k value, 95% CI: 0.76-1.08). We found a statistically significant inverse correlation between age and BD. The post-procedural clip was correctly positioned in 88.2%. The post-procedural hematoma rate was 14.1%. No infection or hemorrhage were recorded. When executed correctly, DBT-guided VABB represents a safe and minimally invasive technique with high histopathological concordance, for detecting nonpalpable lesions without ultrasound correlation.

Complete Surgical Excision Is Necessary following Vacuum-Assisted Biopsy for Breast Cancer. Curr Oncol 2022; 29:9357-9364.

Abstract
Vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (VABB) has been replacing excisional biopsy in the treatment of benign breast lesions. Complete surgical excision is still needed for the lesions occasionally diagnosed with breast cancer after VABB. We aimed to characterize residual tumors after VABB and define a subset of patients who do not need surgical excision after VABB. From a retrospective database, we identified patients diagnosed with breast cancer after VABB guided with ultrasonography. Patients who underwent stereotactic biopsies were excluded. We reviewed clinicopathologic data and radiologic findings of the sample. We identified 48 patients with 49 lesions. After surgical excision, the residual tumors were identified in 40 (81.6%) lesions, and there was no residual tumor in nine (18.3%) patients. Imaging studies could not accurately locate residual tumors after VABB. A small tumor size on a VABB specimen was associated with no residual tumor on final pathology. However, residual tumors were identified in four (40%) of 10 lesions with a pathologic tumor size less than 0.5 cm. In conclusion, complete surgical excision remains the primary option for most of the patients diagnosed with breast cancer after VABB. Imaging surveillance without surgery should be carefully applied for selected low-risk patients.

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.

Atypical Ductal Hyperplasia on Ultrasonography-Guided Vacuum-Assisted Biopsy of the Breast: Considerations for Further Surgical Excision. Ultrasound Q 2021; 36:192-198.

Abstract
The purposes of this study are to evaluate the upgrade rate of atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) diagnosed with ultrasonography (US)-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB) to malignancy and to identify the factors behind the underestimation. We retrospectively reviewed the pathologic results of US-guided VAB of the breast. A total of 50 ADH lesions that were surgically excised or with more than 12 months of follow-up were included. The upgrade rate of ADH was determined by dividing the number of lesions that were proven malignant on surgical excision by the total number of ADH diagnosed on VAB. Clinical, radiologic, procedural, and pathologic variables were analyzed to identify the factors behind the underestimation. The upgrade rate of ADH was found to be 16.0% (8/50 lesions). In univariable and multivariable analyses, the upgrade rates of ADH did not significantly differ among variables. In a subgroup analysis, according to history of breast cancer, the upgrade rates of ADH were significantly lower for lesions of mass than for lesions of nonmass (0% [0/23 lesions] vs 28.6% [4/14 lesions], P = 0.015), and for lesions without calcifications than for lesions with calcifications (0% [0/22 lesions] vs 26.7% [4/15 lesions], P = 0.021) in the negative history subgroup. ADH lesions in masses or without calcifications in patients without a family or personal history of breast cancer were associated with low upgrade rates. Thus, we suggest that ADH with these features can be followed rather than surgically excised after US-guided VAB.

Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of digital breast tomosynthesis-guided vacuum assisted breast biopsy (DBT-VABB) of screening detected suspicious mammographic abnormalities comprising of calcifications, asymmetric densities, architectural distortions and spiculated masses. In this institutionally approved study, a total of 170 (n = 170) DBT-VABB were performed, 153 (90%) were for calcifications, 8 (4.7%) for spiculated mass, 5 (2.9%) for asymmetric density and 4 (2.4%) for architectural distortion. All these lesions were not detected on the corresponding ultrasound. Histopathology results revealed 140 (82.4%) benign, 9 (5.3%) borderline and 21 (12.4%) malignant lesions. The total upgrade rate at surgery was 40% for atypical ductal hyperplasia and 5.9% for ductal carcinoma in-situ. 3.6% discordant benign lesions showed no upgrade. DBT-VABB showed 100% specificity, 91.3% sensitivity and 100% positive predictive value (PPV) for detecting malignant lesions. The negative predictive value (NPV) was 80%. 2 (1.2%) patients had mild complications and 1 (0.6%) had severe pain. Our study showed that DBT-VABB was a safe and reliable method, with high sensitivity, specificity, PPV and NPV in the diagnosis of non-palpable benign and malignant breast lesions. Our data also confirmed the accuracy of DBT-VABB in detecting malignant lesions and we suggest further surgical excision in borderline lesions for a more accurate diagnostic evaluation.

Abstract
Background Management of percutaneously diagnosed pure atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) is an unresolved clinical issue. Purpose To calculate the pooled upgrade rate of percutaneously diagnosed pure ADH. Materials and Methods A search of MEDLINE and EMBASE databases was performed in October 2018. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses, or PRISMA, guidelines were followed. A fixed- or random-effects model was used, along with subgroup and meta-regression analyses. The Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used for study quality, and the Egger test was used for publication bias. Results Of 521 articles, 93 were analyzed, providing data for 6458 ADHs (5911 were managed with surgical excision and 547 with follow-up). Twenty-four studies used core-needle biopsy; 44, vacuum-assisted biopsy; 21, both core-needle and vacuum-assisted biopsy; and four, unspecified techniques. Biopsy was performed with stereotactic guidance in 29 studies; with US guidance in nine, with MRI guidance in nine, and with mixed guidance in eight. Overall heterogeneity was high (I2 = 80%). Subgroup analysis according to management yielded a pooled upgrade rate of 29% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 26%, 32%) for surgically excised lesions and 5% (95% CI: 4%, 8%) for lesions managed with follow-up (P < .001). Heterogeneity was entirely associated with surgically excised lesions (I2 = 78%) rather than those managed with follow-up (I2 = 0%). Most variability was explained by guidance and needle caliper (P = .15). At subgroup analysis of surgically excised lesions, the pooled upgrade rate was 42% (95% CI: 31%, 53%) for US guidance, 23% (95% CI: 19%, 27%) for stereotactic biopsy, and 32% (95% CI: 22%, 43%) for MRI guidance, with heterogeneity (52%, 63%, and 56%, respectively) still showing the effect of needle caliper. When the authors considered patients with apparent complete lesion removal after biopsy (subgroups in 14 studies), the pooled upgrade rate was 14% (95% CI: 8%, 23%). Study quality was low to medium; the risk of publication bias was low (P = .10). Conclusion Because of a pooled upgrade rate higher than 2% (independent of biopsy technique, needle size, imaging guidance, and apparent complete lesion removal), atypical ductal hyperplasia diagnosed with percutaneous needle biopsy should be managed with surgical excision. © RSNA, 2019 Online supplemental material is available for this article.

Abstract
Stereotactic vacuum-assisted biopsy (SVAB) is an alternative method of breast biopsy for nonpalpable lesions detected by mammography. Considering the diagnostic effectiveness, a direct comparison of SVAB and open surgical biopsy (OSB) is lacking. We performed a retrospective review of 276 (33.8%) SVAB and 541 (66.2%) OSB to compare the diagnostic accuracy and the total number of procedures the patients underwent. The negative predictive values of OSB and SVAB were 99.77% and 99.61%, and their false-negative rates were 0.96% and 4.76%, respectively. SVAB, as the first-line biopsy method, obviated 92.3% of operations. All malignancies diagnosed using SVAB could be treated with single therapeutic surgery. By contrast, 48% of malignancies of OSB group received two operations. Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category used at the study correlated well with the percentage of malignancy and can thus be used to predict biopsy results. Our study concluded that SVAB is reliable for diagnosing nonpalpable breast lesions and is the better biopsy method for categories 3 and 4A lesions, which reduces the benign surgery rate. For lesions with a higher likelihood of malignancy, BI-RADS 4B, 4C and 5, SVAB has an advantage over OSB, which lowers the total number of operations for malignancy treatment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines currently recommend excisional biopsy for atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) diagnosed on core needle biopsy (CNB) due to the possibility of pathologic upgrade to breast cancer upon excisional biopsy. We aimed to quantify the current rate of upgrade and identify risk factors. METHODS A retrospective review of women in the Legacy Health Care System with a diagnosis of ADH was performed for 2014 through 2015. Initial pathology and patient factors were reviewed for potential predictors of upgrade. RESULTS 91 women with ADH were identified. 84 (92%) underwent excisional biopsy; 16 (19%) were upgraded to breast cancer. Those upgraded were significantly older than non-upgraded patients (64.6 versus 56.7 years, p < 0.01), and 15 (94%) had greater than one duct involved by ADH. CONCLUSION The principal clinicopathologic factor associated with upgrade is increasing patient age, however this is not sufficiently predictive. Excisional biopsy in patients diagnosed with ADH on CNB should continue. Further study may provide an avenue for selective excisional biopsy in patients with ADH.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to improve the conventional wire-guided localization biopsy (WGLB) of breast microcalcifications to overcome disadvantages associated with the procedure, including inaccurate localization and large specimen volume. The novel approach described in the present study was termed double wire-guided localization and rotary cutting biopsy (DWGLB). Prior to surgery, the precise localization of the lesions was assessed using two wires under the assistance of mammography X-ray and ultrasound, followed by complete excision of the lesions using a novel rotary cutting tool. The cylindrical specimen was placed on a scaled specimen holder for pathological examination. DWGLB was performed in 108 patients with the classification of as Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System score 4A. Percutaneous localization of the lesions guided by a mammography X-ray and ultrasound were successful in all 108 lesions (100%) with one puncture attempt. The lesions were precisely excised in all of 108 patients, and included 13 malignant lesions (DCIS of breast in 7 cases, DCIS with focal invasive carcinoma in 3 cases and invasive ductal carcinoma in 3 cases). The average distance of the BARD Dualok to the lesion was 4.1 mm; the average weight of specimens was 8.5 g. Compared with WGLB, DWGLB offers several advantages, including more accurate localization of lesions, a more standardized biopsy method and a smaller specimen volume. DWGLB can also provide the precise position of lesions in the specimen for further pathological examination.

Abstract
Benign and atypical lesions associated with breast cancer risk are often encountered in core needle biopsies (CNBs) of the breast. For these lesions, the rate of "upgrade" to carcinoma in excision specimens varies widely in the literature. Many CNB studies are limited by a lack of radiological-pathological correlation, consistent criteria for excision, and clinical follow-up for patients who forego excision. This article highlights contemporary diagnostic criteria and outcome data that would support an evidence-based approach to the management of these nonmalignant lesions of the breast diagnosed on CNB.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the clinical value of ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted Mammotome (MMT) system for surgical resection of benign breast disease. METHODS This retrospective study was conducted among 1267 patients who underwent minimally invasive surgery with ultrasound-guided MMT system for benign breast disease at our center between January, 2009 and January, 2014. The resection rate, incidence of complication, recurrence rate, patients' satisfaction, clinical follow-up results and risk factors were analyzed. The patients were followed up at 1 month, 6 months and every 6 months thereafter for up to 2 years with a median follow-up of 22 months. RESULTS Of the total of 1267 patients, 1259 (99.36%) had complete resection of the breast lesions, and residual lesions were found in 8 cases 1 month after the operation. The resection rate was significantly associated with lesion size (P=0.003) but not with the patients'age, pathology, BI-RADS classification, or the number or location of the lesions (P>0.05). Eighty-nine (7.02%) patients showed postoperative complications, and hematoma occurred in 70 (5.52%) patients after the operation. The complication rate was significantly associated with the number and location of lesions (P=0.000) but not with age, pathology, BI-RADS classification or the lesion size (P>0.05). A total of 193 (15.23%) patients had recurrence after the operation, including 65 (5.13%) with in situ recurrence and 128 (10.1%) with new lesions. The recurrence rate was significantly associated with the number and size of lesions (P=0.000) but not with age, pathology, BI-RADS classification or location of lesions(P>0.05). Six patients were not satisfied with the appearance of the incision, and the overall satisfaction rate of the patients was 99.52%. CONCLUSION s Ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted MMT excision is a safe and effective procedure for benign breast disease with a low surgical complication rate, a high resection rate and a low recurrence rate. This technique results in good postoperative appearance for treatment of benign and high-risk breast lesions, especially multiple benign breast lesions.

Abstract
Atypical hyperplasia and lobular carcinoma in situ are rare proliferative breast lesions, growing inside ducts and terminal ducto-lobular units. They represent a marker of increased risk for breast cancer and a non-obligate precursor of malignancy. Evidence available on diagnosis and management is scarce. They are frequently found incidentally associated with other lesions, but can be visible through mammography, ultrasound or magnetic resonance. Due to the risk of underestimation, surgical excision is often performed. The analysis of imaging and histopathological characteristics could help identifying low-risk cases, for which surgery is not necessary. Chemopreventive agents can be used for risk reduction. Careful imaging follow up is mandatory; the role of breast MRI as screening modality is under discussion.
