Abstract:
Objective To assess the imaging features of mammary atypical hyperplasia.
Methods Sixty-four histologically confirmed mammary atypical hyperplasia cases were imaged using mammography and ultrasonography, and their imaging features were retrospectively studied.
Results A total of 8 cases with 84.4% diagnostic rate were mammography positive and ultrasonography negative; 7 cases with 82.8% diagnostic rate were ultrasonography positive and mammography negative; 46 cases with 95.3% diagnostic rate were all mammography and ultrasonography positive; and 3 cases were all mammography and ultrasonography negative but with palpable lesions.
Conclusion This study showed that clinical detection and diagnosis of mammary atypical hyperplasia require comprehensive imaging.
