A vacuum assisted breast biopsy is a minimally invasive procedure used to obtain tissue samples from a suspicious area in the breast, often detected through mammography or ultrasound. This technique uses a specialized probe connected to a vacuum device to collect tissue samples without the need for repeated needle insertions. The procedure is typically guided by imaging techniques, such as ultrasound, stereotactic mammography, or MRI, to ensure precise targeting of the abnormal area. Local anesthesia is used to numb the biopsy site, making the procedure more comfortable for the patient. The main reason for performing a vacuum-assisted breast biopsy is to diagnose or rule out breast cancer or other breast abnormalities, such as benign tumors or atypical hyperplasia. This method allows for the removal of larger or multiple tissue samples compared to a traditional core needle biopsy, often providing more accurate and detailed information for diagnosis. It is also commonly used when the abnormality is too small or located deep within the breast, making other biopsy methods more challenging. Complications associated with a vacuum-assisted breast biopsy are generally minor and may include localized pain, bruising, or swelling at the biopsy site. There is also a small risk of bleeding, infection, or hematoma (a collection of blood under the skin). In rare cases, the biopsy may result in slight changes to the breast's appearance. Despite these potential risks, vacuum-assisted biopsy is an efficient and effective tool for diagnosing breast abnormalities, providing high diagnostic accuracy while minimizing discomfort and recovery time.
