Large-gauge needle biopsy in diagnosing malignant breast neoplasia.
This paper is concerned with large-gauge needle biopsies of suspicious breast neoplasia performed within a three-year period (22nd June 1999 through 21st December 2001). Within that time 262 large-gauge needle biopsies as well as cytological punctions were performed with the aim of diagnosing benign and malignant neoplasia. In the same three-year period 29 malignant breast tumors were diagnosed. In one of the patients a clinically and PHD verified alteration was found which pointed to Mb. Padget, while in another patient an atypical ductal hyperplasia was confirmed by a pathohistological test.
