For nonpalpable lesions, preoperative needle localization with a self-retaining hook wire is required. This procedure requires careful communication between the radiologist and the surgeon. For most lesions, the localizing needle is placed under mammographic guidance into the breast via the shortest direct path to the lesion. The self-retaining wire is placed through the needle, and then the needle may or may not be removed at the discretion of the surgeon. 37 reviewed to confirm that the wire is within the targeted area.
Indeterminate vs. malignant), margin status, stromal overgrowth, and size has been difficult partly because of their rarity. Common sites of metastases from malignant cystosarcoma phyllodes are lung, bone, and mediastinum. Appropriate treatment for phyllodes tumors is complete surgical excision. Breast conservation surgery with appropriate margins is the preferred primary therapy. The incidence of local recurrence ranges from 5% to 15% for benign tumors and 20% to 30% for malignant tumors. Local recurrences are typically salvageable with total mastectomy and do not affect the overall survival rate.
