Mammotome is a specialized device used for performing minimally invasive breast biopsies. It utilizes a vacuum-assisted technology to obtain tissue samples from a suspicious area in the breast, typically identified through mammography or ultrasound. The procedure involves inserting a small probe into the breast through a tiny incision, which is guided to the target area with the help of imaging techniques. The device uses suction to capture multiple tissue samples, allowing for a thorough examination without the need for a larger surgical incision. The primary reasons for using a Mammotome biopsy include evaluating abnormal findings on mammograms, such as lumps or microcalcifications, to determine whether they are benign or malignant. It is often employed when other biopsy methods, like fine needle aspiration, are inadequate for obtaining a sufficient sample. Mammotome biopsy is particularly useful in diagnosing breast cancer, assessing the extent of disease, and guiding treatment decisions. Complications associated with Mammotome biopsy are generally minimal but can include localized pain, bruising, or swelling at the biopsy site. There is also a risk of infection, although this is rare. Some patients might experience temporary tenderness or changes in breast sensitivity. In very rare cases, there might be a risk of bleeding or hematoma (a collection of blood outside the blood vessels). Despite these potential risks, Mammotome biopsy is a valuable, minimally invasive option for obtaining precise tissue samples, aiding in accurate diagnosis and effective management of breast abnormalities.
