Concordancia imaginológica-patológica en biopsia core de mama / Breast lesions with imaging-histologic concordance during automated core biopsy

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to determine the frequency, concordance and discordance of breast lesions during automated core biopsy. A US-guided 14 -gauge automated core needle biopsy was performed on 188 lesions. Only in 1 of 120 benign diagnosed cases imaging-histologic discordance was present. This lesion underwent surgical excision and the case was diagnosed as having carcinoma in situ, as a definitive histological diagnosis. Assessment of correlation between imaging studies and histologic findings, as well as determinaron of concordance, are required to minimize diagnostic errors.

RESUMEN

El propósito de nuestro estudio fue determinar la frecuencia, concordancias y discordancias de las lesiones mamarias. Se realizaron 188 biopsias core con aguja de 14G. Sólo 1 de las 120 lesiones benignas diagnosticadas fue discordante; se recomendó escisión quirúrgica cuyo resultado definitivo demostró carcinoma in situ. Para minimizar errores diagnósticos, se requiere evaluar la correlación entre las imágenes y el resultado histológico, además de establecer la concordancia.
