ABSTRACT

The Breast cancer is still one of the most common causes of death in the female population, specifically the second cause and, in some regions of our country, the first. It has been proven that the Mammography can be used in order to asess an early breast cancer diagnosis. Several other studies had proved the value of screening mammography in the reduction of the mortality by the time the early diagnosis has been made. With the increase in the number of screening studies it has also increased the number of women who require a biopsy of a non palpable and suspicious lession and is precisely in this group of patients where the stereotatic wire localization guided by mastography has proven useful by allowing the exact localization of clinically ocult lessions and later surgical approach. We present the result of 71 breast biopsies done with stereotatic wire localization in the departments of Mastography and Oncology of the General Hospital of Mexico during the periods of 1996 and 2001; poitining out some of its advantages and correlationship between the images obtained and its classification according to the American College of Radiology and the histopathologic results obtained.
