The purpose of this exhibit is:
1. Show how to best determine concordance after biopsy demonstrates predominately benign fatty tissue.
2. Provide tools to improve communication between Radiologists and Pathologists to prevent radiology pathology discordance in breast lesions undergoing biopsy.
3. Discuss lesions that have a classic radiologic appearance but overlapping pathologic findings such as lipoma, angiolipoma, and hamartoma.
4. Review recommendations for management, specifically on to excise or accept as benign concordant, after radiology pathology concordance is determined.
Present cases of breast lesions which can have predominately fat on histology
Discordant breast biopsy showing fat
Lipoma
Angiolipoma
Fat necrosis versus invasive carcinoma
Hamartoma versus fibroadenoma
Review imaging and pathology findings in a case-based format with discussion of significant mimickers
Discuss how to best determine concordance with focus on the following:
Communication between radiology and pathology
Confidence in accuracy of biopsy
Histology interpretation by pathologist
Image review with pathology results by radiologist
Summarize recommendations for improved teamwork between Radiologist and Pathologist
