Abstract

Risks associated with inadequate anesthesia and possible wound bleeding, as well as problems, such as to obtain an informative piece of tissue and to achieve agreement between radiodiagnostic evidence and morphological findings, remain during percutaneous breast puncture (under physician’s hand-held, ultrasound or stereotactic guidance). Further improvement of techniques for this mini-invasive procedure is called for.
