Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy system for the treatment of intraductal papilloma (IDP). A vacuum-assisted breast biopsy system mammotome¢ç was recently introduced for simultaneous biopsy and excision of benign breast masses. Mammotome excision has the advantages of safety and less scar formation compared to open biopsy. Wide excision is a standard treatment for IDP of the breast.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data by using the electric medical records of 752 cases of breast masses that were treated via Mammotome excision performed by a single surgeon between January 2007 and December 2012. Among these patients, 26 patients were diagnosed with benign IDP as indicated in the final pathologic reports.
Results: The median follow-up period was 56.2 months (range, 29?92 months). Two patients were diagnosed with another IDP during the follow-up period. However, no recurrence was detected at the previous excision site, but new primary lesions were confirmed at another quadrant.
Conclusion: We suggest that ultrasound-guided vacuum-assisted breast biopsy system may be feasible and safe for the treatment of IDP.
