Abstract P3-02-02: Predictive value of breast MRI in detecting mammographically occult contralateral breast cancer: Can we target women more likely to have contralateral breast cancer based on primary tumor clinicopathologic factors?
2017
Background: Use of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) staging in newly diagnosed breast cancer increases detection of synchronous contralateral breast cancer (CBC) over other screening modalities; however, it is associated with a high false positive rate, additional biopsies, extensive surgical procedures, and possibly increased psychological morbidity. Specific Aims: To determine predictors of synchronous, mammographically-occult but MRI-detected CBC in women newly diagnosed with breast cancer. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of patients at Allina Health, Abbott Northwestern Hospital who had preoperative breast MRI prior to surgical resection of their breast cancer from 2010–2014. We collected patient demographic and clinicopathologic data. To determine the association between MRI-detected CBC versus benign findings based on clinicopathologic data, we performed univariate analysis (p Findings: 1894 patients had pre-operative MRI during the study period. Of those, 201 had suspicious findings on contralateral breast MRI requiring biopsy (table 1). Overall 3% (60/1894) had synchronous CBC (invasive carcinoma or DCIS) detected on MRI. The majority of CBCs (n=60) were stage 0 or IA (85%), ER/PgR+ (98%), HER2- (89%), and low/intermediate grade (80%). Women more likely to have mammographically-occult CBC were older (p C onclusions : Preoperative MRI is effective in detecting mammographically-occult early stage, hormone receptor positive CBC in older women. MRI-detected CBC is more common in patients originally presenting with hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative index cancers. Our results suggest that it may be possible to determine a subset of patients who are less likely to benefit from a preoperative breast MRI, an important implication in an era of increasing healthcare cost utilization awareness.
