Excerpt

As part of diagnostic work for radiological abnormalities seen in the breast, there has been an increase in use of vacuum-assisted biopsies for diagnosis. This allows more tissue to be sampled and therefore leads to a greater degree of diagnostic accuracy. In addition to diagnosis, in some centres the same procedure has also been used for removal of the entire lesion--vacuum-assisted excision (VAE). This is sometimes offered in place of a diagnostic surgical excision in cases of B3 lesions. We wanted to examine whether VAE can be a safe alternative for B3 lesion that show atypia. …
