I'm 54, no biological children, Mother w/Breast cancer at 43. Had sterotactic core biopsy on 8/30. Results as follows:
Breast tissue w/calciications: Focal atypical ductal hyperplasia, sclerosing adenosis, micorcalcifications, fibrosis, columnar cell change and cysts.
Breast Tissue without microcalcifications: Breast tissue with sclerosing adenosis, cysts, fibrosis, microcalcifications, cysts, apocrine metaplasia, and columnar cell change.
Recommendation: surgery to excise tissue.
I have appt. w/ surgeon on 9/16. Does it seem possible that the adh is associated with a cancerous tumor or process in the area of the microcalifications? What does the surgical procedure entail? I have saline implants placed behind pectoral muscle. Will the implant be affected by the excision of tissue? Will I need radiation for ADH? It is difficult waiting 2 more weeks without additional information.
Thanks for any input.
