Use of Screening Mammography to Detect Occult Malignancy in Autologous Breast Reconstructions: A 15-year Experience.

Purpose To examine how often screening mammography depicts clinically occult malignancy in breast reconstruction with autologous myocutaneous flaps (AMFs). Materials and Methods Between January 1, 2000, and July 15, 2015, the authors retrospectively identified 515 women who had undergone mammography of 618 AMFs and who had at least 1 year of clinical follow-up.

Pleomorphic Lobular Carcinoma In Situ: Imaging Features, Upgrade Rate, and Clinical Outcomes.

Objective: Pleomorphic lobular carcinoma in situ (PLCIS) is an aggressive subtype of lobular carcinoma in situ treated similarly to ductal carcinoma in situ. The purpose of this study was to determine the imaging findings, upgrade rate of PLCIS at core needle biopsy (CNB), and the treatment and outcomes of these patients.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective single-institution study included women with PLCIS at CNB or excisional biopsy without concomitant DCIS or invasive carcinoma between January 1, 1999, and July 20, 2016.

Sonographic diagnosis of partial versus complete molar pregnancy: A reappraisal.
