Atypical ductal hyperplasia on core needle biopsy: Development of a predictive model stratifying carcinoma upgrade risk on excision
ConclusionWe have identified several predictors of carcinoma upgrade for ADH diagnosed on CNB. Our predictive model may be used to stratify the risk of carcinoma upgrade on SE. (Source: The Breast Journal)

Evaluating the frequency of upgrade to malignancy following surgical excision of high ‐risk breast lesions and ductal carcinoma in situ identified by core needle biopsy
This study reveals an upgrade rate of 26.7% of HRLs and DCIS diagnosed by CNB on surgical excision and emphasizes the continued use of large bore needles with an adequate number of core specimens when investigating a suspicious breast lesion. (Source: The Breast Journal)

Cystic neutrophilic granulomatous mastitis: The Cleveland Clinic experience with diagnosis and management
AbstractGranulomatous mastitis is an uncommon inflammatory disease that typically presents with painful breast lesions. Recent publications have brought to light a specific subset of granulomatous mastitis patients with a distinct histological pattern of disease termed, “cystic neutrophilic granulomatous mastitis” (CNGM). Although many cases of granulomatous lobular mastitis have been thought to be idiopathic, this rare subset of an uncommon disease has been linked to infections withCorynebacterium species. Herein, a cohort of CNGM patients from a large, tertiary care, North ‐American, academic medical center is pres...

Intermediate and long ‐term outcomes of fibroadenoma excision in adolescent and young adult patients
AbstractFibroadenomas are benign breast masses that often occur in adolescence and young adulthood. Primary management options include observation or surgical excision, but little is known about long ‐term outcomes after fibroadenoma excision in adolescents. In the present study, we reviewed the medical records of females aged 13‐35 years who underwent fibroadenoma excision at our institution from 1986 through 2010. Patients were included if they had excision of at least 1 fibroadenoma (con firmed by histopathology) smaller than 5 cm in maximal diameter. We collected information pertaining to clinical presentation, m...

Comparing morbidity rates between wise pattern and standard horizontal elliptical mastectomy incisions in patients undergoing immediate breast reconstruction
ConclusionPatients should be counseled WPM is associated with higher rates of skin flap necrosis. However, this does not translate into higher rates of revisional procedures or return to OR. (Source: The Breast Journal)

Intraoperative palpation of sentinel lymph nodes can accurately predict axilla in early breast cancer
AbstractRecent randomized trials have shown that completion axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) is not required in all patients with a positive sentinel lymph node (SLN) who will receive radiation therapy. Although routine intraoperative pathologic assessment (IPA) becomes unnecessary and less indicated by breast surgeons in the United States and some European countries, it is still widely used all around the world. In this prospective study, the feasibility of intraoperative nodal palpation (INP) as opposed to IPA of the SLN has been analyzed. Between March 2014 and June 2015, 305 patients with clinical T1 ‐2/N0 breas...

Neonatal outcomes of pregnancy ‐associated breast cancer: Population‐based study on 11 million births
ConclusionThere is an uptrend in the incidence of PABC and therefore, the need for counseling these patients is also increasing. Although pregnancies with the diagnosis of maternal breast cancer are more prone to premature births, it is encouraging that these babies do not appear to be at increased risk for congenital anomalies, growth restriction, or fetal demise.

Low risk of invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast in carriers of BRCA1 (hereditary breast and ovarian cancer) and TP53 (Li ‐Fraumeni syndrome) germline mutations
AbstractBackgroundInvasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) of the breast has epidemiological, molecular and clinical specificities, and should likely be considered a unique entity. As for genetic susceptibility,CDH1germline mutations predispose exclusively to ILC.Data are however scarce regarding ILC in women withBRCA1/2(Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer) andTP53(Li ‐Fraumeni syndrome) germline mutations.MethodsWe included all breast cancers from female patients tested at our institute between 1992 and 2016 (n  = 3469) for which pathology data were available. ILC proportion comparison according to mutational status was perf...

Prognostic factors for breast cancer patients with T1 ‐2 tumor and 1‐3 positive axillary nodes treated using total mastectomy without radiotherapy
AbstractProspective randomized trials have demonstrated that postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) improves not only locoregional recurrence ‐free survival, but also overall survival for node‐positive breast cancer patients. Subset analyses in previous trials have shown that improvement of overall survival with PMRT is not always demonstrated for patients with 1‐3 positive nodes. Indications for PMRT are still marginal for patients with pathological invasion 5 cm in diameter and 1‐3 positive nodes. The aim of this study was to clarify poor prognostic factors for breast cancer patients with pathological invasion size ...
