Popis: Background: In recent years, there has been an increase in breast surgery for nonpalpable lesions. Traditionally, wires have been used to guide the resection of nonpalpable breast tumors. Recently, several devices have been commercialized as alternatives to classical wires, such as magnetic seeds (Magseed®). The aim of this study is to describe our initial experience using magnetic seeds (Magseed®) to guide breast-conserving surgery in nonpalpable breast lesions and compare the use of magnetic seed with wires to guide breast-conserving surgery, in terms of clinical and pathological characteristics. Methods: We performed a retrospective study including all breast-conserving surgeries for nonpalpable breast lesions Results: Data from 225 cases was collected, 149 magnetic seeds and 76 wires. The breast lesion was localized in every case. Both cohorts were similar regarding clinical and pathological characteristics. We found significant statistical differences (p Conclusion: In our experience, the use of magnetic seed (Magseed®) is a feasible option to guide breast-conserving surgery of non-palpable lesions and enable us to resect less breast tissue.
