Mammographic changes following biopsy and lumpectomy-breast irradiation

I L Wapnir et al. N J Med. 1993 Jan.

Abstract

Mammographic architectural distortion occurred at the operative site in 86 percent of lumpectomy patients and in 34 percent of biopsy patients during the first year (P < 0.001). These changes can mimic carcinoma and may be slow to resolve.
