Abstract

Background: Mammographically visible lesions are categorized according to the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) lexicon of the American College of Radiology. Lesions in category III are "probably benign" and short interval follow-up is suggested. Materials and Methods: Between March 2000 and March 2001, 3570 women, underwent MAMMOGRAPHY at Nemazee and Faghihi hospitals in Shiraz. Four-hundred- thirty-two patients were placed in category III according to BI-RADS, as having "probably benign" lesions and for whom short interval mamographic follow up was recommended. Out of the 432 women who underwent first-round screening, 298 women underwent follow-up MAMMOGRAPHY. An attending radiologist reviewed the breast images for changes in size, density and border of the initial lesions. Open biopsy or fine needle aspiration was performed in suspicious lesions. Results: Out of the 298 probably benign lesions included in this study, malignancy was diagnosed in 6 cases (2%).Decrease in size or obliteration of lesions was observed in 153 (51.3%) cases. No changes were noted in 139 (46.7%) patients. Conclusion: The frequency of cancer among cases with "probably benign lesions" was 2%. Short-term mammographic follow-up is a safe alternative to immediate tissue diagnosis for the management of "probably benign" breast lesions
