[The stereotaxic localization of the smallest breast lesions for diagnosis and preoperative marking--the methods, experimental studies and clinical results with 217 patients].
Between November 1987 and May 1991 217 stereotactic examinations of the breast were performed in the Breast Clinic of the University of Freiburg, including 136 stereotactic biopsies and 81 localisations. Indications were localisation of lesions which were only visible in one plane on mammography, preoperative definition of lesions which could be recognised only by mammography, cytological confirmation of benign lesions and preoperative cytological confirmation of malignant lesions before carrying out conservative resections. Cytological diagnosis was possible in 81 patients (59%) (1988-26%, 1989-67%, 1990-74% and up to May 1991-80%). All carcinomas diagnosed cytologically were confirmed histologically (8 cases with a diameter up to 5 mm). Comparison of the preoperative diagnosis (81 cases) with histological findings showed a high proportion of grade 2 and 3 proliferative mastopathies and papillomatoses (45 patients = 81%).
