Distance of Biopsy-Confirmed High-Risk Breast Lesion from Concurrently Identified Breast Malignancy Associated with Risk of Carcinoma at the High-Risk Lesion Site. Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:2268. [PMID: 38927976 PMCID: PMC11201489 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16122268] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2024] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
High-risk breast lesions including incidental intraductal papilloma without atypia (IPA), lobular hyperplasia (LCIS or ALH), flat epithelial atypia (FEA) and complex sclerosing lesion (CSL) are not routinely excised due to low upgrade rates to carcinoma. We aim to identify features of these lesions predictive of upgrade when identified concurrently with invasive disease. Methods: A single-center retrospective cohort study was performed for patients who underwent multi-site lumpectomies with invasive disease at one site and a high-risk lesion at another site between 2006 and 2021. A multinomial logistic regression was performed. Results: Sixty-five patients met the inclusion criteria. Four patients (6.2%) had an upgrade to in situ disease (DCIS) and one (1.5%) to invasive carcinoma. Three upgraded high-risk lesions were ipsilateral to the concurrent carcinoma and two were contralateral. In the multivariate model, a high-risk lesion within 5 cm of an ipsilateral malignancy was associated with increased risk of upgrade. The 3.8% upgrade rate for high-risk lesions located greater than 5 cm from ipsilateral malignancy or in the contralateral breast suggests that omission of excisional biopsy may be considered. Excisional biopsy of lesions within 5 cm of ipsilateral malignancy is recommended given the 25% upgrade risk in our series.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The implementation of digital breast tomosynthesis has increased the detection of radial scar (RS). Managing this finding may be experienced as a clinical dilemma in daily practice. Breast Contrast-Enhanced MRI (CE-BMR) is a known modality in case of problem-solving tool for mammographic abnormalities. However, the data about AD and CE-BMR are scant. OBJECTIVE The purpose was to estimate the benefit of CE-BMR in the setting of RS detected mammographically through a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature. METHODS A search of MEDLINE and EMBASE databases were conducted in 2022. Based on the PRISMA guidelines, an analysis was performed. The primary endpoint was the correlation between CE-BMR findings and definite outcome for RS (pure RS versus RS associated with atypia or malignancy). RESULTS Three studies were available. The negative predictive value (NPV) was 100% for each. CONCLUSION The high NPV could allow for deferral of a biopsy in favor of a short-interval imaging follow-up in the setting of a negative CE-BMR.

Abstract
Despite its unparalleled sensitivity for aggressive breast cancer, breast MRI continually excites criticism for a specificity that lags behind that of modern mammographic techniques. Radiologists reporting breast MRI need to recognise the range of benign appearances on breast MRI to avoid unnecessary biopsy. This review summarises the reported diagnostic accuracy of breast MRI with particular attention to the technique's specificity, provides a referenced reporting strategy and discusses factors that compromise diagnostic confidence. We then present a pictorial review of benign findings on breast MRI. Enhancing radiological skills to discriminate malignant from benign findings will minimise false positive biopsies, enabling optimal use of multiparametric breast MRI for the benefit of screening clients and breast cancer patients.

Li X, Sun K, Chai W, Zhu H, Yan F. Role of breast MRI in predicting histologic upgrade risks in high-risk breast lesions: A review. Eur J Radiol 2021; 142:109855. [PMID: 34303150 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2021.109855] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2021] [Revised: 06/28/2021] [Accepted: 07/05/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE This article reviews the frequency, upgrade rate and valuable imaging characteristics for predicting the histologic upgrade risks of high-risk lesions on MRI, so as to provide a reference for the management of the lesions. METHODS A comprehensive search for relevant publications from January 2011 to January 2021 was conducted in the PubMed database. The frequency, upgrade rate and valuable imaging characteristics for predicting the upgrade risks of high-risk lesions on MRI included in the articles were reviewed, and the management of high-risk lesions was provided with a reference according to the review results. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS In terms of management options, Atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) and Lobular neoplasia (LN) (the top two high-risk lesions with the highest upgrade rate and frequency) were treated with surgical resection. However, the final treatment decision for other high-risk lesions should be made by a multidisciplinary committee. In terms of the value of breast MRI in predicting the upgrade risks of high-risk lesions, the lesions that were confirmed to upgrade after surgery showed some enhancement characteristics, especially for ADH and LN. At the same time, Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) has a high negative predictive value (NPV) in predicting the upgrade risks of the high-risk lesions, hence misdiagnosis and overtreatment can be reduced. Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and relative apparent diffusion coefficient (rADC) can be used to predict the upgrade risks of the lesions, and the ADC of upgraded lesions is lower than that of non-upgraded lesions. However, these conclusions should be confirmed by further studies.
