title: [The lesions of flat epithelial atypia diagnosed on breast biopsy].
abstract: Among pre-invasive breast diseases, the lesion of flat epithelial atypia has a level of risk that remains unclear. The clinical significance of these lesions and how to behave during their diagnostic biopsy (monitoring vs. surgery) are still uncertain, because few studies (including monitoring) are available and because of the polymorphic spectrum of lesions and their many denominations across the studies in the literature. This article aims to update our knowledge and provide elements for the management of these lesions diagnosed on breast biopsy.
