Mammography occasionally reveals the presence of suspicious appearing clustered microcalcifications without an associated mass. Clinical localization of these microcalcifications within the breast is difficult, even using the 2 dimensional effect of a mammogram.
Percutaneous needle localization of these microcalcifications is recommended for its accuracy, patient acceptance, and reduction in size of the biopsy specimen.
No complications of this procedure have been encountered.
