Product Information

If cancer cells are present at the margins, you may need another surgery so that more tissue can be removed. Unfortunately, nipple discharge cytology has a low sensitivity for the detection of breast cancer and usually does not change the management for patients that have a single spontaneous duct discharge. A biopsy is the only diagnostic procedure that can definitely determine if the suspicious area is cancerous.

The procedure itself is usually fairly quick, though it may take more time if imaging tests are needed or if one of the special types of CNB described below is used. If ultrasound is used, you may feel some pressure from the ultrasound wand and as the needle is put in. This means that your provider will inject an anesthetic around the area of your biopsy site to numb the area so that you won’t feel pain during the procedure. You might have this biopsy if it is difficult to do other types of biopsies such as a needle biopsy.Depending on what part of your body will be biopsied, your doctor may ask you not to eat or drink before the procedure. The tissue sample is sent to a lab, where doctors who specialize in analyzing blood and body tissue (pathologists) examine the tissue sample and provide a diagnosis.

This type of breast biopsy may be used to assess a breast lump that's visible on a mammogram or ultrasound or that your doctor feels during a clinical breast exam. If you’re undergoing a fine needle aspiration biopsy or a core needle biopsy, your healthcare provider will most likely recommend using a local anesthetic. Sometimes the bruising around the site might make you feel the lump has increased in size but please be reassured this will subside as the bruise settles. Four years earlier, while she was receiving medical treatment for major depression, she had inserted a sewing needle into her left anterior chest wall to commit suicide and had told no-one.You may experience mild discomfort during your needle biopsy, such as a sensation of pressure in the area. If the pathology report says that breast cancer is present, it will include information about the cancer itself, such as what type of breast cancer you have and additional information, such as whether the cancer is hormone receptor positive or negative.
