Abstract

Introduction: Carcinoma of breast is the most common cancer of women, the incidence of which continue to increase worldwide. Sonomammography is a sensitive method for the diagnosis of breast cancer preoperatively. Aim: The aim of the present study is to evaluate the histopathological findings of various categories of BIRADS breast lesions and to analyse the discordant cases. Materials and methods: This is a retrospective study of patients who have undergone mammography and simultaneous breast core needle biopsy. This study includes a total of 252 cases. Results: Of these cases 2/252(0.8%) cases were assigned BIRADs category II, 16/252(6.4%) were assigned BIRADs category III, 64/252(25.4%) cases were assigned as BIRADs category IV and 170/252 (67.4%) were assigned as BIRADs category V. Conclusion: In this study Radio-pathological concordance has been observed in 88% cases.
