Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of ultrasound-guided Mammotome minimal invasive system in the treatment of breast fibroadenoma.MethodsFrom January 2007 to October 2008,266 benign breast lesions of 183 cases were treated by ultrasound-guided Mammotome minimal invasive system.The diameter of the masses ranged from 4 to 25 mm(≤ 10 mm in 73 cases,10-20 mm in 148,and ≥ 20 mm in 45).ResultsThe 266 lesions in the 183 patients were excised completely by using the Mammotome system.The excision was performed for a mean of 15 times in each case(ranged from 5 to 44 times) with an average operation time of 26 minutes(10 to 60 minutes).No complication was found after the surgery except slight subcutaneous ecchymosis in 2 cases.The length of the incisional scar,which was not apparent,ranged from 2.5 to 4 mm.The 183 cases were followed up by ultrasonography for 2 to 22 months(mean,12 months),during which their BI-RADS scales ranged from Ⅰ to Ⅱ,no local recurrence was found.ConclusionsUltrasound-guided Mammotome minimally invasive system is feasible for total resection of breast fibroadenoma with appropriate sizes.The technique leads to fewer complications and good cosmetic results.Further studies on the system are necessary for the treatment of multiple breast fibroadenomas.
