[Nonpalpable breast lesions: correlation of the BI-RADS classification and histologic findings].

UNLABELLED
Diagnosis of nonpalpable breast lesions too often requires a breast biopsy or tumorectomy.


OBJECTIVE
To validate the American College of Radiology (ACR) classification and lexicon using a standardized description to improve the uniformity of management of abnormal mammographic lesions and reduce the number of unnecessary tumorectomies.


MATERIAL AND METHODS
This prospective study was conducted in Libreville Hospital Center over a 4-year period and compared the histologic results of 150 nonpalpable masses identified by mammography and their ACR classification to assess the correlation between the radiographic and histologic findings.


RESULTS
There were 90 cases (60%) of ACR2 lesions, 28 cases (18%) of ACR3, 6 cases (4%) of ACR4 and 26 cases (17%) of ACR5 lesions. Histologic results showed that 3% of the ACR2 lesions were malignant, 11% of the ACR3, 67% of the ACR4 and 92% of the ACR5 lesions.


CONCLUSION
The correlations showed that the ACR classification was highly reliable for ACR2 and ACR5 lesions and makes it possible to optimize their treatment. ACR3 and ACR4 lesions must be watched carefully.
