Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical results and operation experiences for benign breast mass by ultrasound guided mammotome minimally invasive biopsy system (MMIBS). Methods 212 benign breast masses in 186 patients were resected by ultrasound guided MMIBS. Clinical data of 186 patients were retrospectively analyzed. Results Needle position in 186 patients was visualized. Lesions were completely removed in 134 cases of 186 (72%) patients. The complete resection rate for tumors on major pectoral muscle or near areola were 31.5% (6/19) and 33.3% (4/12) respectively. Identified by postoperative ultrasound, 118 out of 134 patients (88.0%) with tumor sizes 0.5 to 2.5 cm and 16 out of 38 patients (42.1% ) with sizes 2.5 to 3.0 cm were completely removed. No lesions larger than 3.0 cm were completely removed. All 52 cases in which the tumors were not completely removed by MMIBS were converted to open surgery. Ultrasound follow-up after 4 weeks showed that all the 134 cases that had had masses completely removed had no residual masses, whereas 6 months after operation, 16 out of the 112 cases proved tumor recurrent necessitating open reoperation in 6 cases and second MMIBS operation in 10 cases, among them one case recurred after six months and received open operation. Conclusions For small benign breast mass, MMIBS has therapeutic effect with significantly minimal invasion.
