Radiologic and Pathologic Features Associated With Upgrade of Atypical Ductal Hyperplasia at Surgical Excision.

For women with ADH identified on percutaneous biopsy, the risk of upgrade may in part be determined by lesion size, percent of lesion removed at biopsy, presence of necrosis, and extent of ADH. Using a combination of these radiographic and pathologic features to stratify patients with biopsy-proven ADH may help identify women who could be considered for alternative treatment options.
