High Risk Lesions
• Lesions found on percutaneous biopsy that have a significant risk of demonstrating cancer on excision
• Lesions that indicate an increased risk of breast cancer over a woman’s lifetime
High Risk Lesions
• Lesions found on percutaneous biopsy that have a significant risk of demonstrating cancer on excision
• Lesions that indicate an increased risk of breast cancer over a woman’s lifetime
Old thinkingBloodgood on papillomas 1920
“Every surgeon hesitates to mutilate a woman, and particularly this
organ, but every surgeon with a conscience will attack that which
is or may become cancer
‘Benign’ means ‘born good,’ but all tumors of the breast which have
this title are apt to go bad, and are not to be trusted”
High Risk Lesions at needle biopsy aka historically “not to be trusted”
• ADH
• Lobular neoplasia: ALH and LCIS
• Papillary lesions
• Radial scar
• Flat epithelial atypia
• Mucinous lesions
• Phyllodes tumor

Rationale for surgical removal
• Incomplete removal/ inadequate sampling
– Portion of lesion removed
– Volume of tissue removed correlated to likelihood of cancer found at surgery
– 14G true cut more likely to have cancer at surgery c/w 11G vacuum biopsy device
• Clear miss
Larger Volume of Tissue with Vacuum
devices
• Vacuum-assisted biopsy (VAB)
– 1 insertion, suction, fast, multiple, “directional”
• Core weights:
– 95 mg (11G) vs. 18 mg (14G) (Burbank 96, Berg 97)
• VAB for Ca++, US 14G for masses
What is Incidental High risk lesion?
• Some pathology are clearly incidental:
– Ca++: benign breast tissue with Ca++, however ADH is found without associated ca++
– Mass: benign concordant path, however a microscopic focus of ADH is seen
• Others are less clear
– Ca++: Ca++ in benign and in ADH/LN (? Relative size /proportion)

The upgrade rates are dependent on assessment of radiologic pathologic concordance
Atypical duct hyperplasia (ADH)
• Most common high risk lesion: 5% of all percutaneous biopsies
• Variable definitions:– Some but not all features of DCIS
– All features of DCIS involving 1 or 2 ducts
– All features of DCIS but < 2 mm
• 4-5x increased risk of breast CA – Nonobligatory precursor to DCIS or invasive CA
ADH: Imaging Features
• No specific features
• MG: calcifications
– Up to 20% of amorphous calcifications
• US: no US appearance
– May see underlying process from which it arose
– usually florid ductal hyperplasia (enlargement of ducts or lobules)
ADH
Bx = ADH
Surgery = DCIS
ADH Upgrade - Related to percentage of the lesion removed (calcification retrieval)

ADH on any imaging test requires surgery
Can Some ADH Be Defined as Probably Benign?
• 104 ADH lesions at stereo 11G VAB
– 21% (22/104) cancer at surgery
– DCIS in 86% (19/22), invasive in 14% (3/22)
• Lowest cancer rate (p<0.02)
– 16% (15/92) no family history
– 13% (9/67) lesion <1cm
– 8% (3/36) when mammo target removed
• No subgroup of ADH with <2% cancer risk
Jackman, Radiology 2002; 224: 548-554
Results MSK Audit confirm need for
surgery

Lobular Neoplasia (LN): ALH + LCIS
• No specific imaging appearance
• Associated with increased risk of CA in either breast
– ALH: 4-5x
– LCIS: 8-10x ; 1% per year
• Spectrum of disease:
– ALH: cells do not fill or distend >50% of lobular acini
– LCIS: cells fill and expand lobules and terminal ducts
Cancer at surgery for LN has decreased over the years when careful criteria are applied
Caveat: pleomorphic LCIS
Pleomorphic LCIS on bxILC at excision
Pleomorphic LCIS must always be excised Regardless of detection modality
Papillary Lesions
• Comprise many entities from benign intraductal papilloma to malignant invasive papillary carcinoma
• Can be heterogeneous
• Can be difficult to remove entire lesion percutaneously
PAPILLOMA
• Intracystic or intraductal mass on US suggestive
• May appear as small circumscribed mass on MR +/- washout kinetics
INTRADUCTAL PAPILLOMA
• Central: 80%– Usually solitary
– Presents with nipple discharge
– 1.5-2x RR of invasive breast CA
• Peripheral: 20%– Often multiple
– Increased association with DCIS or ADH
– ~7x RR of breast CA
Large number of studies - wide range of upstage rate
– Studies reporting a very low rate or no upstage cases; recommend observation as appropriate management

Why so much conflicting information about papillomas?
– Differences in biopsy techniques and expertise
– Differences in reporting
– Small numbers
– Papillary lesions are
• relatively rare
• varied appearance at imaging
• can be seen incidentally at biopsy
• are difficult to diagnose pathologically Holley, Radiology, 2012
Individual institutions may need to evaluate their internal data to
develop guidelines regarding excision and observation

INTRADUCTAL PAPILLOMA
• Higher risk of Atypia or Cancer:
– Calcifications
– > 2 cm
– indistinct margins & angulated
– expands duct more than fluid & involves branches or TDLU
• Lower risk:
– <2 cm
– Nonexpansile, nonbranching & does not involve TDLU

• No studies compare upgrade rate of solitary vs multiple
• Path review of specimens show increased association of multiple papillomas with cancer
• Several studies show multiple has higher risk of developing cancer

-61 patients with multiple papillomas (at least 5 in one segment)
-no atypia: n=17-with atypia: n=11-with DCIS: n=20-with invasive carcinoma: n=13

• 1487 MRI VABs from January 2004-March 2011
• Papilloma found at MRI VAB in 75/1487 (5%)
• 25/75 (33%) had atypia, 50/75 (67%) no atypia
• Surgical bx 67/75 (89%)– DCIS 4 (6%;95% CI 2-15%)

– DCIS 2/44 (5%;95% CI 0.4-16%) without atypia
Brennan et al 2012 AJR
MSKCC experience with papillomas• MRI upgrade lower without atypia (5% versus 9%)
• If pathologist can say lesion completely included in biopsy specimen (& no atypia or other risk factors) then PERHAPS these cases can be followed
• Currently reviewing all papillomas on stereo and US hoping that the upgrade will be lower than MRI
• Currently consensus group thinks we have to recommend excision

RADIAL SCLEROSING LESION
• Size criteria:
– Radial scar: < 1.5 cm
– Complex sclerosing lesion: >1.5 cm
• Significance as high risk lesion controversial
– Some evidence for associated atypia or CA in periphery
– Other data suggests generalized risk marker
• 2x risk of breast CA
RADIAL SCAR
• Commonly occult:– 1-2% of biopsies, 28% in autopsy series
• MG:– Spiculated density with radiolucent center
– Architectural distortion without central mass
• US:– Irregular and angular mass
• Shadowing, taller than wide
– Indistinguishable from CA

Path: Benign breast tissue with biopsy site changes
Radial Scar at Image-guided Needle Biopsy: Is Excision Necessary?
• MSKCC 53 patients over 17 years• 48 patients had surgical excision • 1 “upgrade” to malignancy (2%)• Meta-analysis of 20 RS excision studies
– Overall upgrade rate of 10.4%– Higher rate in patients with a diagnosis of RS with atypia
(26%)– Upgrade rate for RS without atypia was 7.5% overall.
• lower rate of upgrade to malignancy in this study (2%) likely related to the thorough radiologic-pathologic review
• If multidisciplinary agreement & careful radiologic-pathologic correlation– may be appropriate for RS without atypia to undergo imaging
follow-upConlon N et al. American J Surg Path 2015 in press
Variations in radiologic & pathologic practice
Means that a universally applicable nomogram for management of breast atypia is extremely
challenging
Multidisciplinary assessment of the risk/benefit ratio of further surgery for each patient should be
assessed
General trend to do less rather than more
In general the following should be excised
• Atypical duct hyperplasia ADH
• Flat epithelial atypia
• Papillary lesions with atypia
• Radial scar with atypia
Observation may be considered
• Lobular neoplasia LN– Atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH)– Lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS)
• Papillary lesions without atypia• Radial scar without atypia
• Only if:– Rad- path concordance– Favorable features– Clinical & imaging stability – high risk clinic– No other high risk lesion with atypia– Not in a breast with a known cancer
• Surgical excision is a safe choice with low morbidity
Evolving Practice at MSKCC
• Radiological Pathological concordance KEY
• Anything with atypia excised
• Any high risk lesion in the same breast as a known cancer excised
• Papillomas/radial scars still excised unless complete excision can be confirmed by imaging and path
• Multiple papillomas followed by imaging
• LN not excised
Take home for Radiologists
• Collaborate with pathologists
• Consider clinical context
• Track your outcomes
• Women with ADH, ALH and LCIS are at sufficient increased risk of development of breast cancer that they should be counseled on the benefits & risks of
1. Enhanced screening
2. Risk reduction strategies
