Excerpt

Conventionally, radial scars (RSs) are surgically excised due to the risk of associated malignancy. However, in the absence of atypia on needle core biopsy (NCB), this risk is low. Mammotome biopsy allows further sampling such that a benign diagnosis may be accepted more confidently. We aimed to review its role as an alternative to surgery in the screening population. …
