Pre-operative determination of histology and receptor status is important in optimizing the management of breast cancer. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the high speed biopsy gun in 109 patients with palpable breast tumours. High speed biopsies were performed using the system BIP High Speed Multi 22 with 16-gauge-needles at a speed of 30 m/s. All biopsies could be used for frozen sections and for determination of receptor status. In 81 patients (74.3%) malignant breast tumours were diagnosed, and three patients (2.8%) had highly suspicious lesions. The oestrogen receptor status was negative in 32%, progesterone receptor status negative in 41%. In one patient (0.9%) a high grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of B-cell-type was diagnosed. In 21.1% benign tumours were found. In one patient a malignant tumour was missed at biopsy (0.9% false-negative). It was concluded that high speed biopsy is a reliable and simple method for preoperative sampling of breast lesions. |
