Abstract

Complete removal of nonpalpable breast malignancies is possible with the stereotactic percutaneous directional vacuum-assisted biopsy device. Complete removal is more likely with removal of a large number of specimens from small areas of mammographic calcifications due to ductal carcinoma in situ.
