ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To assess findings of mammography of and interventions resulting from breast cancer screening in women aged 40-49 years with no increased risk (typical risk) of breast cancer. METHODS This cross-sectional study evaluated women aged 40-49 years who underwent mammography screening in a mastology reference center in Recife, PE, Northeastern Brazil, between January 2010 and October 2011. Women with breast-related complaints, positive findings in the physical examination, or high risk of breast cancer were excluded. RESULTS The 1,000 mammograms performed were classified into the following Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) categories BI-RADS 0, 232; BI-RADS 1, 294; BI-RADS 2, 294; BI-RADS 3, 16; BI-RADS 4A, 2; BI-RADS 5, 1. There was one case of grade II invasive ductal carcinoma and various interventions, including 469 ultrasound scans, 53 referrals to mastologists, 11 cytological examinations, and 8 biopsies. CONCLUSIONS Mammography screening in women aged 40-49 years with typical risk of breast cancer led to the performance of other interventions. However, it also resulted in increased costs without demonstrable efficacy in decreasing mortality. .
RESUMO
OBJETIVO Avaliar os achados mamográficos e as intervenções decorrentes do rastreamento em mulheres de 40 a 49 anos de idade com risco habitual para o câncer de mama. MÉTODOS Estudo transversal com mulheres de 40 a 49 anos, submetidas ao rastreamento mamográfico em centro de referência em mastologia, em Recife, PE, de janeiro de 2010 a outubro de 2011. Foram excluídas mulheres com queixas mamárias, alterações no exame físico e com alto risco para câncer de mama. RESULTADOS Das 1.000 mamografias realizadas, 232 foram BI-RADS 0, 454 BI-RADS 1, 294 BI-RADS 2, 16 BI-RADS 3, duas BI-RADS 4A, uma BI-RADS 4C e uma BI-RADS 5. Observou-se um único caso de carcinoma ductal invasivo grau II e várias intervenções 469 ultrassonografias, 53 encaminhamentos para a mastologia, 11 citologias e oito biópsias.
