Revisiting Wire Localization: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Outcomes of Non-Mass Suspicious Breast Calcifications in the Absence of Stereotactic Biopsy
Suspicious microcalcifications, often detected on screening or follow-up mammograms, may not form palpable masses, but can serve as an early indicator of breast cancer. Histopathological evaluation via wire-localized excision provides a reliable diagnostic and therapeutic approach, particularly in centers lacking access to stereotactic biopsy equipment.
