Am J Surg 2024; 233:114-119. [PMID: 38503684 DOI: 10.1016/j.amjsurg.2024.02.039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 02/22/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare outcomes between benign intraductal papillomas diagnosed on core need biopsy that were excised (BIP-E) versus those that were followed-up (BIP-F) at our institution. METHODS Patients were identified by an electronic data base search from January 2010 to October 2016. After exclusions, clinical, radiological and histologic variables were evaluated and biopsy and excision slides reviewed. RESULTS 110 BIP from 104 females were analyzed. 84 BIP were excised and 26 BIP were followed up (mean 43.3 months, range 7-93 months).11 patients in BIP-E group had atypia on excision. There were no statistically significant differences between BIP-E with atypia and BIP-E without, except for clinical presentation with pain/discomfort (p = 0.015) in the former. There were no true upgrades to malignancy in both groups on follow up. One patient from each group developed a new breast cancer distant from IP site after nearly 4 years of uneventful follow-up. CONCLUSION Clinical follow up is an oncologically safe alternative for radiologically concordant BIP. Excision may be considered if a diagnosis of atypia would impact surveillence and chemoprevention recommendations.

Abstract
Benign breast disease (BBD) is a heterogenous group of lesions often classified as nonproliferative or proliferative, with the latter group further categorized based on the presence of atypia. Although nonproliferative lesions are more common, the risk of breast cancer is elevated in women with proliferative lesions. Historically, the majority of proliferative lesions were excised due to concern for future and/or concomitant breast cancer at the site of the index lesion. However, contemporary data suggest that the risk of cancer associated with various proliferative lesions may be lower than previously thought, and management of BBD has become more nuanced. In this review, we will focus on recent updates in the management of a select group of benign and high-risk lesions.

Abstract
Introduction Management of intraductal papillomas (IDPs) diagnosed on core needle biopsy (CNB) remains controversial. We report our experience of IDPs identified on CNB, our institutional rates of upgradation to atypia/malignancy as well as radiologic/pathologic features that may allow selection for surgery as well as those for safe observation. Methods The study is a retrospective review of patient records from 2012 to 2019, at a tertiary care hospital in Pakistan. Data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS), version 21.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY). Associations between various patient factors were assessed using Pearson's chi-square test. Results This study included a total of 55 female patients with IDPs, with a mean age of 54.67 ± 15.57 years. On CNB, 69.1% (n = 38) of patients had IDP without atypia while 30.9% (n = 17) had IDP with atypia, with single IDPs being the most common lesions on excisional biopsy. Overall, of all CNB-diagnosed IDPs, only 4/55 (7.3%) demonstrated upgradation (3/4 to DCIS, 1/4 showed atypia) on excisional biopsy, and all these upgraded cases had failed to demonstrate atypia on initial CNB. Conclusion CNB-identified cases of IDPs are rarely upgraded on excision and thus routine excision in all cases may be unnecessary. Appropriate patient selection based on radiology-pathology findings should be done. Those with suspicious findings on imaging as well as those that demonstrate atypia on CNB must be excised.

Abstract
Currently, the optimal treatment approach for breast benign intraductal papilloma (IDP) diagnosed via biopsy remains uncertain. There is ongoing debate regarding the feasibility of clinical follow-up and the criteria for selective surgical excision. This study aims to conduct a meta-analysis to determine the rate of upgrade from breast benign IDP and identify predictive factors associated with the conversion of benign IDP to high-risk lesions or carcinoma, which could guide healthcare practitioners in selecting the appropriate clinical treatment strategy. We conducted a comprehensive search across multiple databases (PubMed, Web Of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase) for studies published between 2012 and 2023 that evaluated upgrade rates and predictive factors of breast benign IDP diagnosed via biopsy. In addition, we included studies that reported on the clinical follow-up of patients with breast benign IDP. In total, 32 studies comprising 7371 cases of biopsy-diagnosed breast benign IDP were included. Among these cases, 720 demonstrated an upgrade to high-risk lesions or carcinoma, resulting in an upgrade rate of 6.94% [95% confidence interval (CI): 3.0-8.0%]. A subgroup of 1713 patients was clinically followed up, demonstrating an average follow-up duration of 30.95 months. Among them, 26 cases experienced an upgrade to high-risk lesions or carcinoma, yielding an upgrade rate of 1.51% (95% CI 0.00-2.00). Furthermore, we identified nine predictive factors associated with the upgrading of breast benign IDP, which included age at diagnosis, personal history of breast cancer, family history of breast cancer, multiple IDPs, lesion size ≥ 10 mm, palpable mass, calcification, and the presence of mass and asymmetry in mammographic findings. Although the conversion rate of breast benign IDP to high-risk lesions or carcinoma is relatively low, timely identification of predictive factors associated with benign IDP upgrades may help selecting the optimal clinical treatment strategy, such as surgery for patients with benign IDP presenting one or more predictive factors, while clinical follow-up for those without specific risk factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ductal lesions are an important, often overlooked, and poorly understood issue in breast imaging, which have a risk of underlying malignancy ranging from 5 to 23%. Ultrasonography (US), which has largely replaced galactography or ductography, has become an important imaging method to assess patients with ductal lesions. However, it is difficult to distinguish benign from malignant ductal abnormalities only by ultrasonography, most of which are recommended to be at least in subcategory 4A; these require biopsy according to the ACR BI-RADS®atlas 5th Edition-breast ultrasound. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has been shown to be valuable for differentiating benign from malignant tumors, but its value is unclear in breast ductal lesions. Therefore, the purposes of this study were to explore the characteristics of malignant ductal abnormalities on US and CEUS imaging and the diagnostic value of CEUS in breast ductal abnormalities. METHODS Overall, 82 patients with 82 suspicious ductal lesions were recruited for this prospective study. They were divided into benign and malignant groups according to the pathological results. Morphologic features and quantitative parameters of US and CEUS were analyzed by comparison and multivariate logistic regression to determine the independent risk factors. The diagnostic performance was assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS Shape, margin, inner echo, size, microcalcification and blood flow classification on US, wash-in time, enhancement intensity, enhancement mode, enhancement scope, blood perfusion defects, peripheral high enhancement and boundary on CEUS were identified as features correlated with malignant ductal lesions. However, multivariate logistic regression showed that only microcalcification (OR = 8.96, P = 0.047) and enhancement scope (enlarged, OR = 27.42, P = 0.018) were independent risk factors for predicting malignant ductal lesions. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, accuracy and area under the ROC curve of microcalcifications combined with an enlarged enhancement scope were 0.895, 0.886, 0.872, 0.907, 0.890, and 0.92, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Microcalcification and enlarged enhancement scope are independent factors for predicting malignant ductal lesions. The combined diagnosis can greatly improve the diagnostic performance, indicating that CEUS can be useful in the differentiation of benign and malignant lesions to formulate more appropriate management for ductal lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Papillomas of the breast pose challenges for treatment decisions as their risk for transformation to breast cancer is low but not negligible. To spare low-risk patients the burden of substantial treatment side effects, prognostic indicators are needed for cancerous progression. The secreted metastasis mediator Osteopontin (OPN) is a marker for breast cancer aggressiveness, and its variants are prognosticators for transformation in diverse premalignant breast lesions. Here, we test whether the presence of OPN-c or OPN-exon-4 in papillomatous lesions may reflect progression risk. METHODS By immunohistochemistry, we analyze OPN-c and OPN-exon-4 in papillomas from 114 women as well as correlations between staining and progression. In departure from prior spliced OPN biomarker publications, we utilize novel monoclonal antibodies. RESULTS Fewer than 5% of OPN-c pathology score 0-1 (intensity) versus almost 18% of score 2-3 experienced cancer in follow-up. Nine of 12 women, who progressed, had pathology scores of 2-3 for OPN-c intensity at the time of initial diagnosis, and none had a score of 0. When developing a combined risk score from intensity plus percent positivity for OPN-c, the progression risk for patients with low score was 3.2%, for intermediate score was 5.7%, and for high score was 18.8%. Papillomas in patients, who were later diagnosed with cancer in the contralateral breast, displayed stronger staining positivity than non-progressors. CONCLUSION OPN splice variant immunohistochemistry on biopsies of breast papillomas will allow counseling of the patients on their risk to develop breast cancer at a later time.

Abstract
Surgical excision of breast intraductal papilloma (IDP) without atypia diagnosed on core needle biopsy (CNB) is controversial as the risk of upgrade to malignant lesions is not well established. This study investigates upgrade rates of benign and atypical IDP to ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and invasive carcinoma (IC) and clinicopathologic predictors. We identified 556 cases of IDP diagnosed on CNB at a single institution from 2010-2020 after excluding patients with a history of breast carcinoma, ipsilateral high-risk lesion, radiologic/pathologic discordance, or less than 2 years of follow-up if no excision within one year. Of these, 97 biopsies were consistent with atypical IDP and 459 were benign IDP. Surgical excision was performed for 318 (57.2%), and the remaining 238 (42.8%) underwent active monitoring. The upgrade rate for IDP without atypia was 2/225 (0.9%; 1 DCIS and 1 IC). Of 93 surgically excised atypical IDPs, 19/93 (20.4%) upgraded (14 DCIS and 5 IC). Of 238 non-excised IDPs followed clinically (range 24-140 months, mean 60 months), there was no subsequent breast cancer diagnosed at the IDP site on follow-up. Mean age of patients was 56 yr±12.6sd without upgrade, 63 yr±10.6sd (p value=0.027) with DCIS, and 61 yr±10.8sd (p value=0.35) with IC. Atypical IDP was more likely to upgrade if biopsied by stereotactic guidance (8/19, 42.1% p=0.035). At our institution, we had an exceedingly low upgrade rate for benign IDP. Overall, patients with upgrade to DCIS were older. For atypical IDP, upgrade was seen in higher proportions of stereotactic biopsies.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVE To determine the diagnostic yield of various imaging tests used to evaluate nipple discharge. MATERIALS AND METHODS A single institution, IRB-approved, retrospective study was performed of 320 consecutive patients presenting with nipple discharge. Imaging and pathology were reviewed to determine the yield for malignancy, atypical high-risk lesions (HRLs), and intraductal papillomas (IDPs). RESULTS Of the 320 patients, pathology or follow up confirmed 40 breast malignancies (40/320, 12.5%),14 atypical HRLs (14/320, 4.4%), 71 IDPs (71/320, 22.2%), 48 other benign pathologies (48/320,15.0%), and 147 unknown but benign cases (147/320, 45.9%). Physiologic discharge characteristics were observed in a minority of malignant cases: nonspontaneous (4/40, 10.0%); neither bloody nor clear (4/40, 10.0%); bilateral (3/40, 7.5%). Malignancy was associated with older age (p < 0.001) and bloody discharge (odds ratio 6.5, p < 0.0001). The combination of digital mammography and ultrasound had a 93% sensitivity and a 98% NPV, while contrast enhanced MRI (CE-MRI) had a 100% sensitivity and a 100% NPV for malignancy. Only three galactography examinations were performed among the malignant cohort, with minimal contribution (1 of 3) to the diagnostic evaluation. In this case, galactography findings helped determine imaging-pathology discordance, prompting a recommendation for surgical excision and subsequently a malignant diagnosis. CONCLUSION The combination of mammography and ultrasonography detected 93% of breast malignancies associated with nipple discharge and had a 98% NPV for malignancy. The value of CE-MRI is its ability to detect the remaining malignancies, not detected on mammography or ultrasound, and its ability to obviate the need for surgical duct excision.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Intraductal papilloma (IDP) is a benign tumor of the breast. However, IDP has been reported to show high uptake of 18F-FDG using whole-body PET. We experienced IDP with low-grade ductal carcinoma in situ using dedicated breast PET, which is more sensitive than whole-body PET. The 18F-FDG uptake of the whole tumor was high, and differentiation between the carcinoma and the residual benign lesion was difficult. This is the first report of IDP detected with dedicated breast PET. Diagnosis of IDP is sometimes controversial; papilloma may show glucose uptake similar to that of low-grade carcinoma.

Abstract
AIM In this study, we analyzed the upgrade rate and associated factors for upgrade, malignant upgrade, and subsequent breast cancer occurrence of papillary breast lesions diagnosed on core needle biopsy (CNB). METHODS One hundred sixty-nine patients who underwent surgery for the treatment of papillary breast lesions diagnosed on CNB were included in this study. Medical records including radiological and pathological reports were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS The overall upgrade rate was 29.6%, and upgrade rate to malignancy was 16.6%. Age over 45 years, preoperative tumor size ≥0.7 cm on breast ultrasound, pathologic tumor size ≥0.4 cm, breast imaging reporting and data system (BIRADS) category 4b or 4c, and personal history of breast cancer were associated with upgrade. In addition, age over 45 years, preoperative tumor size ≥0.9 cm, pathologic tumor size ≥0.6 cm, atypia in CNB, and BIRADS category 4b or 4c were associated with malignancy. The risk of subsequent breast cancer occurrence was increased in preoperative tumor size ≥0.8 cm, pathologic tumor size ≥0.5 cm, multiple and recurrent lesions. CONCLUSION Our study showed high upgrade rate of papillary breast lesions diagnosed on CNB. Our findings suggest that surgical excision is recommended for papillary breast lesions diagnosed on CNB in selected patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess the percentage of papillomas from all biopsies performed, comparing differences in patient age and race at a single institution. To assess trends in biopsied papillomas at institutions throughout the United States (US). METHODS This is a HIPPA-compliant IRB-approved single-institution (Southern1) retrospective review to assess race and age of all-modality-biopsied non-malignant papillomas as a percentage of all biopsies (percentage papillomas calculated as papilloma biopsies/all biopsies) from January 2012 to December 2019. To assess national variation, several academic or large referral centers were contacted to provide data regarding papilloma percentages, biopsy modalities, and trends in case numbers. Trends were estimated using the method of analysis of variance (ANOVA). Comparisons of differences in trends were assessed. RESULTS Southern1 institution demonstrated a significant association between race and percentage of papillomas (p < 0.0001). After adjustment for multiple comparisons with Bonferroni correction at 5% type I family error, the percentage of biopsied papillomas in Black and Asian patients remained significantly higher than in White patients (p < 0.0001 and p = 0.0032, respectively) using a Chi-square test. The regional variation in percentage of papillomas was found to be 3-9%. Southern1 institution showed a 7-year significant trend of increase in percentage of papillomas. Other institutions showed a decreasing trend (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Black and Asian women had significantly higher papilloma percentages compared to white patients in our single institution review. This institution also showed a statistically significant trend of increasing percentage papillomas from 2012 to 2019. Multi-institutional survey found regional variation in percentage papillomas, ranging from 3% to 9%.

Abstract
Papillary lesions of the breast represent a heterogeneous group of lesions including benign papillomas, papillomas with focal epithelial atypia, fully fledged ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or lobular neoplasia, papillary DCIS, encapsulated papillary carcinomas without or with invasion, solid papillary carcinomas, and invasive papillary carcinomas. A micropapillary pattern characterized by lack of fibrous stalks within the papillae is observed in micropapillary DCIS and invasive micropapillary carcinoma. In addition, a variety of other rare breast lesions reveals a papillary architecture such as tall cell carcinoma with reversed polarity (TCCRP) and mucinous cystadenocarcinoma, adenomyoepithelioma, and secretory carcinoma. In addition, benign lesions such as usual ductal hyperplasia, apocrine metaplasia, gynecomastia, and juvenile papillomatosis may show a papillary or micropapillary architecture. Fragments of a benign papilloma in a breast biopsy are considered a lesion of uncertain malignant potential (B3 in the European classification) and excision is mostly recommended. Although the knowledge about molecular pathology of papillary breast lesions has increased, there is not sufficient evidence for diagnostically useful molecular features, yet. The aim of this review is to provide an update on papillary and micropapillary lesions with emphasis on problematic areas for daily diagnostic work including biopsies.

Abstract
Background Digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) has improved the accuracy of mammography, including resolving many breast asymmetries as overlapping breast tissue. The pathologic outcomes of persistent developing asymmetries visualized at DBT are not well established. Purpose To characterize the outcomes and the predictors of malignancy for developing asymmetries visualized at DBT without a sonographic correlate. Materials and Methods This retrospective study included all tomosynthesis-guided biopsies of developing asymmetries performed at a single institution from May 2017 through January 2020. A reader study including three breast imaging radiologists determined interrater agreement and inclusion into the study. Electronic medical records were used to extract patient characteristics, imaging characteristics, and pathologic diagnoses. The Wilcoxon rank sum test, Fisher exact test, and χ2 test were used to analyze correlations of patient and imaging characteristics with likelihood of malignancy. Results The reader study included 95 DBT examinations with moderate interrater reliability (Fleiss κ = 0.45). There was majority reader agreement in 85 of the 95 DBT examinations (89%) of 83 women (median age, 56 years; interquartile range, 47-69 years), and this finalized the study data set. At pathologic examination, most asymmetries (68 of 85, 80%) were benign, with common diagnoses being fibrocystic change (n = 20), stromal fibrosis (n = 10), and fat necrosis (n = 10). The overall malignancy rate was 20% (17 of 85 asymmetries; 95% CI: 12, 29); 15 of the 17 malignancies (88%) were invasive cancers. Malignancies were more common in women with a personal history of breast cancer (35% vs 10%, P = .02). Conclusion In 85 developing asymmetries visualized at digital breast tomosynthesis without a sonographic correlate, there was a 20% (95% CI: 12, 29) malignancy rate, which was higher than the rates of malignancy for a developing asymmetry detected at digital mammography. © RSNA, 2021 See also the editorial by Skaane in this issue.

Multidisciplinary Review of Intraductal Papilloma of the Breast can Identify Patients who may Omit Surgical Excision. Ann Surg Oncol 2021; 28:5768-5774.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to define contemporary management recommendations regarding who would benefit from surgical excision of intraductal papilloma (IDP). METHODS A prospective database from a single institution identified patients with IDP on percutaneous biopsy from February 2015 to September 2020. Categorical patient demographic, biopsy, and pathologic variables were analyzed using Fisher's exact test and continuous demographic and imaging variables using the Mann-Whitney U test. RESULTS IDP was present in 416 biopsies, at a median age of 56 years. The median size was 0.9 cm, and the majority had greater than 50% of the target excised by biopsy. Surgical excision was performed for 124 of 416 biopsies (29.8%). Upgrade to malignancy was identified in 14 (11.3%): 8 to ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and 6 to invasive cancer. Upgrade was significantly associated with concurrent ipsilateral breast cancer (p = 0.027), larger imaging size (p = 0.045), <50% excised with biopsy (p = 0.02), and atypia involving IDP (p = 0.045). Age, clinical presentation, and concurrent contralateral cancer were not significantly associated with upgrade. Lowest upgrade risk (0%) was in pure IDP ≤1 cm with >50% removed by biopsy. Of 401 biopsies that either did not upgrade or undergo excision, 7 (1.7%) developed subsequent breast cancer over a median follow-up of 23.5 months (interquartile range [IQR] 11,41), none at IDP site. CONCLUSIONS After multidisciplinary review, the management of IDP can be stratified into low- and high-risk for upgrade groups using key criteria. Low-risk group may omit surgical excision, because those patients have 0% risk of upgrade over the limited short-term follow-up.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current standard management for intraductal papilloma (IDP) diagnosed at biopsy indicates complete surgical resection, but there are increasing controversies over whether and when routine excision is indeed necessary. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the carcinoma upgrade rate and identify the associated predictive factors for IDP diagnosed at biopsy by meta-analysis. METHODS We searched the PubMed and EMBASE databases for studies published from 2009 to 2020 that investigated the upgrade rate and predictive factors of IDP diagnosed at biopsy. RESULTS A total of 7016 IDP cases diagnosed at biopsy and histologically examined after surgical excision were pooled from 44 original studies. The pooled prevalence of IDP in breast biopsy findings was 4.6% [95% confidence interval (CI) 4.4-4.7%] and the majority of IDP tumors were benign. The pooled upgrade rates to carcinoma for benign IDP and atypical IDP were 5.0% (95% CI 4.4-5.5%) and 36.0% (95% CI 32.7-39.2%), respectively. In addition, we identified 10 predictive upgrade factors for benign IDP, including Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) 5, BI-RADS 4C, mass and calcification in the mammographic finding, bloody nipple discharge, imaging-histological discordance, peripheral IDP, palpable mass, BI-RADS 4B, microcalcification, and lesion size ≥ 1 cm. The upgrade rates associated with these predictive factors ranged from 7.3 to 31.1%. CONCLUSION Surgical excision appears a reasonable recommendation for atypical IDP. Patients with benign IDP exhibiting one or more predictive factors might benefit from surgical excision, while patients with asymptomatic benign IDP without these predictive factors can be managed by imaging surveillance.

Tomosynthesis-Guided Vacuum-Assisted Breast Biopsy of Architectural Distortion Without a Sonographic Correlate: A Retrospective Review. AJR Am J Roentgenol 2021; 217:845-854.

Abstract
BACKGROUND. Digital breast tomosynthesis-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy (DBT VAB) allows biopsy of findings seen better or exclusively on digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT), including architectural distortion. Although architectural distortion with an associated sonographic mass correlate has a high risk of malignancy, limited data describe the radiologic-pathologic correlation of tomosynthesis-detected architectural distortion without a sonographic correlate. OBJECTIVE. This study evaluates the malignancy rate of architectural distortions without a sonographic correlate that undergo DBT VAB and provides radiologic-pathologic correlation for benign, high-risk, and malignant entities that are associated with architectural distortion. METHODS. We retrospectively reviewed imaging, as well as pathology slides and/or reports, for DBT VABs performed for architectural distortion without a sonographic correlate at a single institution between June 1, 2017, and January 15, 2020. According to the correlative histopathology, cases were categorized as benign, high risk, or malignant, and specific histopathologic diagnoses were summarized. RESULTS. During the study period, 142 patients (mean age, 59 years) underwent DBT VAB for 151 unique architectural distortions without a sonographic correlate. DBT VAB revealed a malignant diagnosis in 27 (18%), a high-risk lesion in 50 (33%), and a benign diagnosis in 74 (49%). Two cases of atypical ductal hyperplasia were upgraded to malignancy, resulting in a final malignancy rate of 19% (n = 29/151). Most malignant lesions were invasive carcinomas (83%, n = 24/29); most invasive carcinomas were of lobular subtype (54%, n = 13/24). Most high-risk lesions were radial scars/complex sclerosing lesions (62%, n = 31/50). Most benign results represented fibrocystic change (66%, n = 49/74). A subset (11%, n = 8/74) of benign results were considered discordant and subsequently excised, with none representing malignancy. CONCLUSION. The final malignancy rate of 19% in architectural distortion without a sonographic correlate justifies a recommendation for biopsy using DBT VAB. CLINICAL IMPACT. Our results highlight the utility of DBT VAB in the era of DBT. The detailed radiologic-pathologic correlations will assist radiologists in assessing concordance when performing DBT VAB for architectural distortions and provide a reference for future patient management.

Analysis of 612 Benign Papillomas Diagnosed At Core Biopsy: Rate of Upgrade to Malignancy, Factors Associated with Upgrade, and A Proposal For Selective Surgical Excision. AJR Am J Roentgenol 2021; 217:1299-1311. [PMID: 34008998 DOI: 10.2214/ajr.21.25832] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Background: Despite numerous published studies, management of benign papillomas without atypia remains controversial. Objective: To determine the malignancy upgrade rate of benign papillomas, identify risk factors for upgrade, and formulate criteria for selective surgery. Methods: This retrospective study included benign papillomas without atypia diagnosed on percutaneous biopsy between 12/01/2000 and 12/31/2019. Papillomas that did not undergo surgical excision or at least 2 years of imaging and/or clinical follow-up were excluded. Clinical, imaging, and histopathologic features were extracted from the electronic medical record. Features associated with upgrade to malignancy were identified. Multivariable logistic regression was performed. Results: The study included 612 benign papillomas in 543 women (mean age 54.5 ± 12.1 years); 466 papillomas were excised, and 146 underwent imaging/clinical surveillance. The upgrade rate to malignancy was 2.3% (14/612). Upgrade rate was associated (p<.05) with radiology-pathology correlation (50.0% if discordant vs 2.1% if concordant), patient age (5.6% for age ≥60 vs 0.7% for age <60), presenting symptoms (6.7% if palpable mass or pathologic nipple discharge vs 1.3% if no symptoms), and lesion size (7.3% if ≥10 mm vs 0.6% if <10 mm). Three of 14 upgraded papillomas were associated with ≥4 metachronous or concurrent peripheral papillomas. No incidental papilloma or papilloma reported as completely excised on core biopsy histopathologic analysis was upgraded. A predictive model combining radiology-pathology discordance, symptoms (palpable mass or nipple discharge), age ≥60, size ≥10 mm, and presence of ≥4 metachronous or concurrent peripheral papillomas achieved AUC 0.91, sensitivity 79%, and specificity 89% for upgrade. Selective surgery based on presence of any of these five factors, while excluding from surgery incidental papillomas and papillomas reported as completely excised on histopathology, would spare 294 of 612 lesions from routine excision, while identifying all 14 upgraded lesions. Conclusion: Benign non-atypical papillomas have a low malignancy upgrade rate; routine surgical excision may not be necessary. Selective excision is recommended for lesions satisfying any of the 5 criteria. Incidental papillomas or papillomas completely excised on histopathology may undergo imaging follow-up. Clinical Impact: The proposed criteria for selective surgery of benign papillomas on core biopsy would reduce surgeries without delaying diagnosis of malignancy.

Abstract
Papillary neoplasms of the breast are a heterogeneous group of epithelial tumors nearly entirely composed of papillae. Their classification rests on the characteristics of the epithelium and the presence and distribution of the myoepithelial cells along the papillae and around the tumor. Papillary neoplasms of the breast can be diagnostically challenging, especially if only core needle biopsy (CNB) material is available. This review summarizes salient morphological and immunohistochemical features, clinical presentation, and differential diagnoses of papillary neoplasms of the breast. We include a contemporary appraisal of the upgrade rate to carcinoma (invasive carcinoma and ductal carcinoma in situ [DCIS]) and atypical hyperplasias in surgical excision specimens obtained following CNB diagnosis of papilloma without atypia, and a review of the available follow-up data in cases without immediate surgical excision.

Abstract
Papillary breast lesions are rare breast tumors that comprise a broad spectrum of diseases. Pathologically they present as mass-like projections attached to the wall of the ducts, supported by fibrovascular stalks lined by epithelial cells. On mammogram they appear as masses that can be associated with microcalcifications. Ultrasound is the most used imaging modality. On ultrasound papillary lesions appear as homogeneous solid lesions or complex intracystic lesions. A nonparallel orientation, an echogenic halo or posterior acoustic enhancement associated with microcalcifications are highly suggestive of malignancy. MRI has proven to be useful to establish the extent of the lesion. Core needle biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosis. Surgical excision is usually recommended, although treatment for papillomas without atypia is still controversial.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the surgical upgrade rate to malignancy and high-risk lesions in cases of papilloma without atypia diagnosed with imaging-guided percutaneous core needle biopsy (CNB) and to determine whether any lesion imaging features, biopsy techniques, and pathological factors can predict lesion upgrade to help guide clinical management. MATERIALS AND METHODS Benign papillomas without atypia (n = 399) diagnosed with CNB were retrospectively reviewed. The surgical upgrade rate to malignancy or high-risk lesion (atypical ductal hyperplasia, atypical lobular hyperplasia, lobular carcinoma in-situ, flat epithelial atypia and atypical papilloma) was determined. Detection modality (i.e. mammography, ultrasonography (US), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)), lesion type and size, biopsy-guidance modality (US, stereotactic, MRI), biopsy needle size (<14 G vs ≥14 G), use of vacuum assistance, and presenting symptoms were statistically analyzed. The reference standard for evaluation of upgrade was either excision or at least 24 months of imaging follow-up. Chi Square test and Fisher exact tests were performed for categorical variables, and the Mann-Whitney-U test was used for continuous variables. RESULTS Ultrasound was the predominant biopsy modality (78.4 %, p < 0.001). Of the 399 benign papilloma lesions in 329 women, 239 (59.9 %) were excised and 93 others were followed for at least 24 months (total of 332). Of these 332 lesions, 7 (2.1 %) were upgraded to ductal carcinoma in-situ and 41 (12.3 %) to high-risk lesions at excision. Larger lesion size (≥15 mm, p = 0.009), smaller biopsy needle size (≥14 G, p = 0.027), and use of spring-loaded biopsy device (p = 0.012) were significantly associated with upgrade to atypia. Only lesion size (≥15 mm, p = 0.02) was associated with upgrade to cancer. CONCLUSION Upgrade to malignancy of biopsy-proven benign papillomas without atypia at the time of surgery was sufficiently low (2.1 %) to support non-operative management. Surgery may be performed for selected cases- those with larger lesion size and those whose biopsies were performed with smaller spring-loaded biopsy needles.
