Background: The diagnosis of breast cancer necessitates a multifaceted approach integrating cytopathological and radiological assessments. The International Academy of Cytology (IAC) Yokohama system and Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) are fundamental frameworks in this context. This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic potential of a combined Yokohama-BI-RADS scoring system for breast lesions.

- - Angioid streaks are irregular breaks in Bruch's membrane, appearing as pigmented lines that can indicate underlying systemic diseases like pseudoxanthoma elasticum, Paget's disease, and hemoglobinopathies in about 50% of cases, though some may be idiopathic.
- - Patients often remain asymptomatic until complications arise, such as choroidal neovascular membrane or subretinal hemorrhage, which can occur even from minor trauma due to the membrane's fragility.
- - Diagnosis involves clinical exams and imaging techniques like fundus autofluorescence and optical coherence tomography, while treatment typically focuses on managing complications, often through intravitreal injections of antivascular endothelial growth factor.
