Abstract
UNLABELLED: The aim of this study was to investigate association of radiographic (BI-RADS 4 and 5) results and prognostic factors of invasive ductal carcinomas with their histopathological subtypes. A total of 103 patients histopathologically diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma of breast with in last five years period were enrolled. Of them, 69 patients who had radiological reports in were included from registry of Radiology Department; Duzce University Training and Research Hospital archives. BI-RADS scores (4 and 5) of radiological reports and subtypes of ductal carcinoma were compared. Of 69 cases, 12 of 22 cases with BIRADS 4 score were Triple negative (TN) while 5 of 47 cases with BIRADS 5 score were TN (p = 0.001). The patients with TN tumors were found to have lower average age, higher grade, higher Ki67 proliferative index and fewer lymph node metastasis than those with non-TN ductal carcinomas (p = 0.048; 0.019; 0.02; 0.048 respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Patients who had radiological BIRADS 4 score were significantly more frequent TN type carcinoma than BI-RADS 5. It is important to pay attention to this issue when clinicians evaluate patients with BI-RADS 4 score breast lesions.
