Clinical Implications of Subcategorizing BI-RADS 4 Breast Lesions associated with Microcalcification: A Radiology–Pathology Correlation StudyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Currently radiologists have the option of subcategorizing BI-RADS 4 breast lesions into 4A (low suspicion for malignancy), 4B (intermediate suspicion of malignancy), and 4C (moderate concern, but not classic for malignancy). To determine the clinical significance of BI-RADS 4 subcategories and the common pathologic changes associated with these mammographic lesions, a retrospective review of 239 consecutive stereotactic-needle core biopsies (SNCB) for microcalcifications was performed. All 239 SNCBs were BI-RADS 4 lesions, and of these, 191 were subcategorized to 4A, 4B or 4C. Ninety-four of 191 (49%) were 4A, 73...

Discontinuation of Radiation Treatment among Medicaid-Enrolled Women with Local and Regional Stage Breast CancerEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: For women with nonmetastatic breast cancer, radiation therapy is recommended as a necessary component of the breast conserving surgery (BCS) treatment option. The degree to which Medicaid-enrolled women complete recommended radiation therapy protocols is not known. We evaluate radiation treatment completion rates for Medicaid enrollees aged 18[ndash]64 diagnosed with breast cancer. We determine clinical and socio-demographic factors associated with not starting treatment, and with interruptions or not completing radiation treatment. Using data from the Washington State Cancer Registry linked to Medicaid enrollmen...

Breast Reconstruction with Implants, Tissue Expanders and AlloDerm: Predicting Volume and Maximizing the Skin Envelope in Skin Sparing MastectomiesEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: AlloDerm has been used as a tissue supplement in conjunction with the pectoralis major muscle to provide full coverage over an implant in breast reconstruction. While this method of reconstruction has shown promising results there is little known on the relationship of AlloDerm size and potential immediate expansion volume. A retrospective chart review was completed evaluating all tissue expander or primary implant reconstructions using AlloDerm. Data recorded included: The type/size of implant/expander, dimensions of the AlloDerm used, initial fill volume, number of expansions and time period of expansion. Stati...

Progenitor-Enriched Adipose Tissue Transplantation as Rescue for Breast Implant ComplicationsEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. discuss this article 1 CommentDiscuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Breast enhancement with artificial implants is one of the most frequently performed cosmetic surgeries but is associated with various complications, such as capsular contracture, that lead to implant removal or replacement at a relatively high rate. For replacement, we used transplantation of progenitor-supplemented adipose tissue (cell-assisted lipotransfer; CAL) in 15 patients. The stromal vascular fraction containing adipose tissue progenitor cells obtained from liposuction aspirates was used to enrich for progenitor cells in the graft. Overall, clinical results were very satisfactory, and no major abnormaliti...

Patterns of Surgical Treatment for Women with Breast Cancer in Relation to AgeEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Although treatment recommendations have been advocated for all women with early breast cancer regardless of age, it is generally accepted that different treatments are preferred based on the age of the patient. The aim of this study was to assess the pattern of breast cancer surgery after adjusting for other major prognostic factors in relation to patient age. Data on cancer characteristics and surgical procedures in 31,298 patients with early breast cancer reported to the National Breast Cancer Audit between 1999 and 2006 were used for the study. There was a close association between age and surgical treatment p...

Time to First Tumor Progression as Outcome Predictor of a Second Trasuzumab-Based Therapy beyond Progression in HER-2 Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer1Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: In a previous analysis performed on a cohort of 37 HER-2 positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients treated with trastuzumab beyond progression, we found that a second trastuzumab-based therapy is associated with a considerable response rate and preserved time to progression as compared with a first trastuzumab-based therapy. In the present study, we extended the analysis to a total of 69 patients treated in four different italian Institutions, also trying to identify clinical predictors of sensitivity to a second trastuzumab-based therapy beyond progression. Efficacy results on the overall population confi...

Obesity is a Risk Factor for Developing Postoperative Lymphedema in Breast Cancer PatientsEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Lymphedema (LE) is a well-known postoperative complication after axillary node dissection (ALND). Although, sentinel lymph node dissection (SLND) involves more focused surgery and less disruption of the axilla, early reports show up to 13% of patients experience some symptoms of LE. The purpose of this study was to determine predictors of arm LE in our patients under going SLND with or without an ALND. One hundred and thirty-seven breast cancer patients were treated at a comprehensive cancer center. Prospective measurement of arm volume was carried every 6 months from date of diagnosis. This data base was retrosp...

Sentinel Lymph Node Detection in Breast Cancer Patients by Real-Time Virtual Sonography Constructed With Three-Dimensional Computed Tomography-LymphographyEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Ultrasonography (US) is one tool for preoperative diagnosis of lymph node metastases in breast cancer. However, US cannot detect true sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). We identified SLNs in 60 clinically node-negative breast cancer patients using a real-time virtual sonography (RVS) system to display in real time a virtual multi-planar reconstruction obtained from computed tomography (CT) volume data corresponding to the same cross-sectional image from US. CT volume data were obtained from our original three-dimensional CT lymphography (3DCT-LG), which accurately detects SLNs in breast cancer. SLN metastases were asse...

Interstitial Laser Therapy of Breast Fibroadenomas With 6 and 8 Year Follow-UpEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Fibroadenomas are non-cancerous breast tumors commonly seen in teenagers but also found in women at the time of first mammogram. They have distinct physical findings and imaging features but the definitive diagnosis is made by ultrasound or stereotactic guided needle biopsy. Treatment options are observation or surgical removal. Recently, removal by ultrasound-guided technique has been reported. Alternatively, the tumor may be ablated within the breast by cold (cryotherapy) or by heat (laser, radiofrequency, focused ultrasound and microwave). In this paper the laser treatment in two patients, one with bilateral f...

Quantitative Assessment of Radiation-Induced Fibrosis of the Breast with Tissue Compliance Meter, Palpation, and Radiological Imaging: Preliminary ResultsEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Abstract: Quantification of radiation (RT)-induced fibrosis (RIF) continues to present a challenge in breast cancer survivors. We compare assessment of RIF by palpation and tissue compliance meter (TCM) to the radiological findings in women treated with RT. Of 300 patients treated with adjuvant RT, 17 women had [ge]2-year follow-up sufficient to document RIF. Palpation and TCM were employed by three radiation oncologists in a blinded fashion. Palpation grades 1, 2, and 3 denoted mild, moderate, and severe RIF. TCM measured degree of compliance (DC) of RIF in irradiated (RTB) and nonirradiated breasts (NRTB). Architectural ...

Simple Prediction Models for Breast Cancer Patients with Solitary Positive Sentinel Nodes––are they Valid?Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
In this study, we evaluate the performance of two recently published models (Alkhatib et al. and Chagpar et al.) that attempt to predict patients who have isolated sentinel lymph node metastases. Both of these models reported a 5% rate of positive nonsentinel nodes in their respective lowest risk category. From 1997 to 2004, 465 breast cancer patients had a positive sentinel node and underwent axillary lymph node dissection at Mayo Clinic. To evaluate the Alkhatib model, patients were assigned to the following groups: group 1: 1 positive sentinel node and [ge]1 negative sentinel node(s); group 2: >1 positive sentinel node ...

Invasive Breast Carcinoma Arising in Microglandular Adenosis: A Case Report and Review of the LiteratureEmail this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
We reported a case of invasive carcinoma arising in microglandular adenosis. A lumpectomy was performed on a 42-year-old female because of a mass in the right breast. Grossly, the lesion was ill-defined with thickened areas. Histologically, this case was consistent with carcinoma arising in microglandular adenosis and showed clear transition from microglandular adenosis through atypical microglandular adenosis to in situ and invasive carcinoma. All the epithelial cells were positive for cytokeratin7, S-100 protein, but negative for estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and Her2/Neu. No myoepithelial cells were demonstr...
