Case number 10 history is screening.
0:08
Okay, and now because Health cases are
0:11
always notoriously hard on projections on
0:14
a PowerPoint. I provided you with some
0:17
additional images.
0:22
and to be extra kind a few extra images
0:29
So now go to the question and I'll scroll back so that
0:32
once the question pops up so you can continue to look.
0:38
Good. Hold on sorry you guys
0:41
go.
0:43
75% of course heterogeneous. 25%
0:46
said Lucent no one said large
0:49
Rod like and no encyclomorphic. I'm not going to give you the answer yet.
0:52
Because I want you to answer the next question.
0:58
And I'm happy to go back to the images again.
1:02
All right, and 50% of you said sexual
1:05
carcinomian say to virus for okay
1:08
and 50% skin counts. Let's go back to
1:11
the case. So I want you to notice that the
1:14
calcifications are about 12 o clock in the
1:17
right breast here. They're very hard to see right. So
1:20
remember I was doing you guys a favor
1:23
by nagging those up because it's so hard to see and normally you can Max them
1:26
up yourself, but you want to judge.
1:29
If they're finer course based on the non-mags mammogram,
1:33
right? So these are really hard to see so
1:36
I wouldn't quite call these cores. I would think these are fine.
1:40
Then we mad them and we see they're all different shapes. So
1:43
I call these punctuation calcifications or
1:46
shrapnil calcification and so punctuation calcifications.
1:49
I call them that because if I look closely here
1:52
and I think I like my next image even better down here. Okay.
1:55
This looks like a parentheses.
1:58
It's like a comma this looks like a period I think there's another comma here
2:01
it looks like a colon. So it looks
2:04
like you someone hit all the punctuation keys on the
2:08
on the keyboards. And so
2:11
that's multiple different shapes and that's
2:14
the definition of cleomorphic.
2:16
And I also call them shrapnel calcification
2:19
because it almost looks like a bomb goes off.
2:22
And so if a bomb explodes and shrapnel goes all over the place. It's
2:25
in all different shapes and sizes. It's not uniform right and
2:28
it's a bomb a good thing or a bad thing. It's bad thing, right?
2:31
So that's why I remember this shrapnel calcifications all
2:34
different sizes of strap. No bad dcis. Okay, so
2:37
these are pleomorphic health education.
2:40
And the their caused by usually high
2:43
grade dcis with commute and necrosis and
2:46
again necrosis when things are benign. They tend to
2:49
push and grow very uniform and and look
2:52
very symmetrics when things
2:55
are malignant. There's infusion. There's necrosis. It's
2:58
a regular rate. And so so that's
3:01
what this is. So these would so I want
3:04
to go over the answer. So these are not large Rod like calcifications right large
3:07
Rod, like calcifications describe secretory
3:10
calcifications, and
3:13
they're usually emanating from the nipple. It's benign. It's caused by
3:16
plasma cell messeitis and usually see
3:19
them symmetric and again radiating from the nipple. We just talked
3:22
about the amorphic loosen Center calcifications is
3:25
a benign descriptor, right? So this is where you really need to know you're by
3:28
Red.
3:30
Loosen Center is a benign descriptor and these are those.
3:35
Don't don't or Cheerio calcifications where they're
3:38
around. They have a loosen Center. Usually if you
3:41
do tangential views, you can localize them to the skin, of course
3:44
heterogeneous. I know that is a confusing thing for plea
3:47
Market calcification that actually have get done this case many times.
3:50
I've actually never had the confusion from my participants before
3:53
so now I'm going to learn to put another slide to show
3:56
you guys. What a course at our genius calcification is in the answers so
3:59
that we can learn about that but they're much
4:02
easier to see much much easier to see and they almost look
4:05
like developing popcorn calcifications. Okay, so
4:08
definitely not it's fine. Feel more pick are more
4:11
fine. Okay, so you but both leomorphic and
4:14
chords heterogeneous are concerning descriptors, right? Whereas large
4:17
like and lose it are benign descriptors.
4:21
So this would be dcis which is a byrest for
4:24
skin calcification would be those loosen Center
4:27
and they would be a buyer ads too. Okay?
