Summary

Screening detects subclinical breast abnormalities requiring surgical biopsy for diagnosis. Surgeons must balance oncologic outcomes with cosmetic results, ensuring complete lesion removal and minimizing scarring.

Area of Science:

  • Breast imaging and surgical oncology.
  • Pathology and diagnostic procedures.

Background:

  • Screening mammography identifies subclinical breast abnormalities.
  • Excisional biopsy is crucial for definitive diagnosis of breast cancer.
  • Non-palpable lesions require precise surgical intervention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the management of subclinical mammographic abnormalities.
  • To emphasize the importance of complete excision and cosmetic outcomes.
  • To highlight the need for multidisciplinary communication.

Main Methods:

  • Surgical biopsy guided by mammographic findings.
  • Histological examination for malignancy confirmation.
  • Postoperative mammography to assess excision completeness.

Main Results:

  • Surgical excision aims to prove or rule out malignancy.
  • Careful technique minimizes disfiguring scars and incomplete removal.
  • Suspicious mammographic patterns guide surgical assessment.

Conclusions:

  • Effective management of non-palpable breast lesions requires radiologist-surgeon-pathologist collaboration.
  • Optimal lumpectomy technique balances oncologic safety and aesthetic results.
  • Minimizing scarring and ensuring complete excision are key surgical goals.
