Nonpalpable Breast Lesions

e11557 Background: A histological diagnosis for nonpalpable breast lesions (NPBL) is required to determine suitable therapy. The open-breast biopsy (OBB) is the gold standard to determine the nature of NPBL. However, it is not easy to accurately remove whole breast lesions due to insufficient safe margin of lesions excised. To improve accuracy for removal of NPBL, we designed new tools to assist surgeons to accurately localize and remove NPBL during OBB. Methods: The new device system has two primary parts. First is a set of accurate-resection devices composed of a rotary cutter, a pair of inner and outer tubes, two pairs of concave and convex curved hooks, and a curved incision plate. The second part is the 12 o'clock localization method used to accurately position lesions three-dimensionally after the breast tissue is excised cylindrically. Thus, the exact location of breast lesions removed can be precisely traced back to the original breast tissue location. Results: 100 patients with a total of 149 OBB were studied using the new device system guided with needle localization under ultrasound. 112 out of 149 procedures were identified as nodule. Among 112 cases, 95 were breast fibroadenomas, 10 were mammary adenosis with a trend to form fibroadenoma, 5 were mammary adenosis, and 2 were adipomas. The remaining 37 cases possessed clusters of calcified lesions with small nodule. 32 were benign lesions with calcinosis, and the other 5 lesions were identified as breast cancer. Pathological examination demonstrated that 144 NPBL were accurately resected with accurate-resection devices. However, 19 out of 144 breast lesions were not completely removed the first time. Thus the second surgical procedure was performed for the 19 cases based on 12 o'clock localization method. The results demonstrated that the remaining lesions were accurately and completely eliminated with the second procedure. All patients were followed up with for 2 to 48 months post procedures. These patients treated with accurate resection devices were very satisfied with no breast deformation. Conclusions: The new device system is easy to use and has very low cost. It is very comfortable for the patient and is of great help in accurately localizing and resecting the lesions to the surgeon.
