Next, we're going to look at a case of a
0:03
58-year-old woman with a history of left breast
0:05
cancer that was treated with mastectomy and
0:09
she has right breast pain and nipple discharge.
0:12
Her mammogram was negative, and in her
0:16
situation, her doctor ordered a breast MRI
0:20
for further evaluation.
0:23
So this is the patient's MRI.
0:25
We're really only looking at the right
0:27
breast because the left breast has had
0:30
a mastectomy with no reconstruction.
0:34
So coming from the top,
0:39
when we get into the central portion
0:40
of her breast, we start getting into
0:42
this clustered ring enhancement.
0:45
You can start seeing these rings of
0:49
enhancement with dark signal centrally.
0:54
Another pair here.
1:00
We get into the center of the breast.
1:01
You see three rings right there and
1:04
another one here, but she has this
1:08
whole area of non-mass enhancement,
1:11
but it has that clustered ring pattern.
1:14
When you stop and look at the individual
1:16
areas, there are multiple clustered rings
1:20
throughout that whole enhancing area.
1:26
Probably best seen right here in the middle,
1:29
but clustered ring enhancement.
1:32
So we did recommend biopsy for this,
1:35
and this ended up being a benign etiology.
1:41
She had ductal tissue with adjacent inflammatory
1:44
changes, and not sure if this was related to her
1:47
pain or discharge, but it was benign.
