Abstract:
From January 1990 through December 1992, 1,585 preoperative wire localization procedures of occult breast lesions were performed at the authors' institution. Of these, 739 (47%) were masses, and ultrasound (US) guidance was performed to localize 30 lesions. In five of the 30 lesions, no mass was seen at radiography of the specimen, but US of the specimen helped confirm complete excision.
