Patient Data
Area of parenchymal distortion localized to the upper outer quadrants of the right breast. Small amorphous calcifications and initial retraction of the retroareolar region.
Ultrasound examination confirms a nodule with spiculated, hypoechogenic margins. Integration. Elastosonography reveals elevated ratio.
The ultrasound findings are suspicious for a malignant neoplasm.
Case Discussion
Mammographic and ultrasound findings were highly suspicious of malignancy (BI-RADS 4). The patient underwent a biopsy examination that confirmed the diagnostic suspicion.
The histological examination report depicted invasive breast carcinoma of no special type, focal in situ component (<25%), absence of tumor necrosis, lymphovascular invasion, and microcalcifications present.
