Abstract:
Objective To observe the vascular imaging the pathological changes in the patients with breast cancer after neoadjuvant intraarterial chemotherapy. Methods Before intraarterial infusion, DSA were performed on 96 patients with breast cancer. Pathological changes were studied after operation. Results The blood supply of breast cancer mainly arises from the lateral thoracic and subscapular arteries. Abnormalities in the vascular architecture of breast cancer include irregular bolus arrangement, contrast staining, pooling of contrast material. Degeneracy and necrosis can be seen in the tumor cells after intraarterial chemotherapy. The stromal edema, infiltration of inflammatory cells and fibroplasia may take place. Conclusions Intraarterial infusion of neoadjuvant chemotherapy is effective in the patients with breast cancer.
