Abstract
This study included 70 cases of pure FEA. Twenty women underwent surgical excision and 50 had clinical and mammographic surveillance only. In three women FEA was upgraded to breast cancer on excision. Clinical and mammographic follow-up for a mean of 56 monthsâ¯Â±â¯27 in the group without excision showed two cancers in the same breast (Intermediate grade DCIS, and invasive ductal carcinoma 84 and 48 months respectively after VABB). Three factors were significantly predictive of underestimation or occurence of cancer for pure FEA when the radiologic lesions are calcifications: age⥠57 years, radiologic size >10â¯mm and number of FEA foci â¥4.
