Moving on to the next case. So the history
0:03
here. I'm going to start with the 2011 exam
0:06
this patient had at this time
0:09
was 44 years old and had a palpable left
0:12
breast lump.
0:15
And we had some images we had some difficulty getting the static images
0:18
to work and be de-identified. So what
0:21
I what I'm going to show you here is the cine clip.
0:24
The mammogram was done and just showed a large.
0:27
Well, circumscribed, Mass.
0:29
So I'm going to send you show you this cineclip and
0:32
over here is the measurements of this mass that
0:35
you'll see.
0:38
So there's the mass.
0:44
I'll pause it.
0:48
And get back to those measurements. So again, the measurements were 3.9
0:51
by 3.3 by 1.3 centimeters.
0:55
With a volume of just under 9 cc's.
0:58
So this underwent ultrasound guided biopsy and was
1:01
shown to be a simple fiber adenoma.
1:05
And she just returned to clinical and annual screening follow-up.
1:11
In 2014. I she saw
1:14
another primary care provider who felt this mess
1:17
and thought well, let's just take another look at this. It's been a
1:20
couple years. So again this the initial biopsy was
1:23
January 2011, and this is
1:26
Um, July of 2014 so you
1:29
can see I put the measurements here.
1:33
So to refresh your memory it previously measured
1:36
3.9.
1:38
By 3.3 by 1.3 centimeters and
1:41
the volume previously was almost nine CC
1:44
so it did get a little bit bigger mostly in
1:47
one dimension. Maybe a little bit in the other dimension.
1:51
But this was quite mobile and that was
1:55
felt to be part of the
1:57
Difference so I'll show you the clip here.
2:00
And I think you can visually see it's a bit taller
2:03
than it was before.
2:09
Okay.
2:11
So at this point, I'd like to show the polling question
2:14
for this case.
2:17
So what is the next best step in this patient we've had.
2:21
About three and a half years and a slight interval increase
2:24
in size maybe about 50% increase
2:27
by volume biopsy proven fiber adenoma.
2:32
Great. Okay, so pretty much.
2:36
Everyone who answered wants to biopsy
2:39
it again.
2:40
And I will say I think there isn't
2:43
a clear there's no clear evidence based
2:46
recommendation for what to
2:49
do. In this case. I will tell you I was
2:52
the one that interpreted this and felt
2:55
like it was visible on the mammogram and
2:58
she could feel it and just said
3:00
I think it's
3:02
an okay amount of growth and Let It Go.
3:06
Okay, and then I will just show you so she ended
3:09
up coming back about 10 months. Later.
3:13
And this is what we saw.
3:19
So this had rapidly increased
3:22
in size so
3:25
per the patient. She really hadn't felt any changes until very recently
3:28
after this where this just rapidly
3:31
increased in size. There was some history
3:34
of possibly a mild trauma.
3:37
So some thinking that maybe this could be hematoma, but
3:40
because it was so suspicious and the
3:43
patient really didn't have any bruising she underwent
3:46
biopsy.
3:48
Which was initially actually non-diagnostic and she
3:51
underwent subsequently a surgical excisional biopsy
3:54
which showed to be an aggressive
3:57
malignant philoides.
3:59
So this is a very sad case.
4:03
so I'll just start showing the
4:09
mips here. So just as we saw in that
4:12
MRI, this was benign over
4:15
here, but just as we saw, I'm sorry on the ultrasound. There's
4:18
a very large.
4:20
Mass
4:22
where this other where this fiber had had Noma
4:25
had been
4:30
And here's the t2 the surgeon said
4:33
when she went in and did the surgical excision. It
4:36
was very
4:38
soft
4:42
very soft tumor
4:44
So it showed.
4:47
pretty T2 bright here almost looks
4:50
like fluid
4:53
with some fluid around it
4:55
and as you can see from the mips that enhanced a
4:58
lot.
4:59
Here's a subtraction.
5:01
Okay, I'll just show the post
5:04
contrast.
5:05
Which not surprisingly just showed a lot of enhancement.
5:13
So and there we go. Lots of
5:16
enhancement.
5:20
and fallouty's
5:22
can have this kind of cleft this is
5:25
described at pathology this cleft appearance, which I wonder if
5:28
this is what we're seeing here on the MRI.
5:31
I think the main teaching point with this is
5:34
with this case
5:36
I'm just gonna bring this up again.
5:39
Certainly going forward. This was a very this was
5:42
a very large mass to begin with and
5:46
Again, when I looked into this, there's
5:49
not clear.
5:51
Guidelines set forth as
5:54
to what size these should be removed and I'm not
5:57
sure even if we had biopsied this in 2014 if
6:00
we would have gotten floaties.
6:04
But I think going at this point going forward. I certainly
6:07
would have rebiopsied it possibly just said, you know, this is
6:10
pretty big. It should just come out. Of course this case influences
6:13
me.
6:16
And the pathologist actually went back and looked at
6:19
the 2011 biopsy sample and said
6:22
no it just like fibroadnoma.
6:24
And it probably you know fibradenoma and
6:27
poloides are on the same spectrum pathologically and
6:30
there may just have been a small 40s segment that
6:33
kept growing and eventually became malignant.
