ABSTRACT
Introduction: Intratumoral injection of nanocolloid for lymphatic mapping
enables therapeutic excision of clinically occult breast cancer with the aid of a
gamma ray detection probe.
Objective:The aim of this study was to determine the success rate of
radioguided tumor excision in addition to a guide wire and to identify factors
predicting clear margins.
Material and methods: Sixty five consecutive patients with invasive occult
breast cancer underwent radioguided tumor excision after intratumoral injection of
99 mTc-nanocolloid guided by ultrasound or stereotaxis. A localization wire was
inserted; subsequently scintigraphy was performed (group 1). Results were compared
with retrospective data from 67 consecutive patients who underwent therapeutic
wire-directed excision alone (group 2). Factors predicting clear margin (>1 mm)
were determined in a logistic regression model.
Results: Adequate margins were obtained in 83 (group 1) and 64% (group 2; p
= 0.014) respectively. The invasive component was performed in 4 and 14 patients,
respectively. Factors predictive of clear margins were decreasing pathologic tumor
diameter (p = 0.035), increasing weight of specimen (p = 0.046), absence of
micro-calcifications (p = 0.004), and absence of carcinoma in situ component
(p = 0.024). Radioguided excision was an independent predictor of complete
excision of the invasive component (p = 0.012).
Conclusions: Application of radioguided surgery combined with wire
localization seems to improve outcome of therapeutic excision of non-palpable
invasive breast cancer compared to wire-directed excision alone.
