[Five-year experience with the multidisciplinary evaluation of breast lesions according to the Decker radio-pathologic correlation system].
Orvosi Hetilap 2017 July
INTRODUCTION: Lesions identified during breast imaging often require microscopic verification. Current recommendations imply the classification of radiological, clinical, cytology and core biopsy findings into one of five predefined categories. The Decker system also includes a classification of both the correlation between radiology and pathology and the actions required on this basis.
AIM: To report on the five-year results of the implementation of the Decker system in our pretreatment multidisciplinary breast team.
METHOD: Retrospective analysis of patients operated on because of breast diseases or appearing at the multidisciplinary breast team during the period between 2000 and 2014.
RESULTS: Of 1716 cases discussed, 1531 were solved by non-operative diagnostics, 157 required diagnostic excisions; 1122 cases (65%) proved to be malignant. Malignancy was diagnosed by core needle biopsies in 69% of the cases. The non-operative approach was unsuccessful, delayed or wrong in 14 cases.
CONCLUSION: Breast lesions need to be evaluated in a multidisciplinary setting. The Decker-system is suitable for the recording and analysis of the correlation between radiologic/physical and microscopy findings, and of the ensuing diagnostic/therapeutic actions.
