New method described to localize nonpalpable lesions with adhesive marker plate.

The device "consists of a square plate made of highly flexible plastic with an adhesive film on the back for firm attachment to the area of the breast surface corresponding to the approximate location of the lesion. This plate contains a network of holes and a system of radiopaque coordinates," explained J.D. Berna-Serna and colleagues, University General Hospital, Murcia, Spain.
They assessed the technique in 41 consecutive mammographic localizations using the adhesive marker plate. "In most cases (n=34) the lesions were microcalcifications. The mean age of the patients was 54.7 years," the researchers noted.
In 95.1% (39/41) of cases, the lesions were localized to within 5 mm of the lesion or were localized by transfixation, and in the remaining 2 cases, lesions were localized to within 1 cm.
"Surgical excision of the breast lesions was carried out successfully in all cases, and in 56% (23/41) ...
