Background When needle core biopsies (NCBs) of the breast reveal radial scar or complex
sclerosing lesions (RSLs), excision is often recommended despite a low risk of malignancy …

Purpose Radial scars and complex sclerosing lesions of the breast are part of a group of
“indeterminate” breast lesions, which are excised due to risk of coexistent carcinoma. The …

Background Radial scars (RS) and complex sclerosing lesions (CSL) are breast radiologic
findings described as small, stellate lesions causing architectural distortion. This can mimic …

Complex or radial sclerosing lesions (CSL/RSL) are uncommon diagnoses on core needle
biopsy with a reported upgrade rate ranging between 0% and 23%. As a result, their …

Background We investigated the radiologic and clinical findings of radial scar and complex
sclerosing lesions, and evaluated the rate of pathologic upgrade and predicting factors …

Aims Radial scars (RS)/complex sclerosing lesions (CSL) are rare, benign breast lesions of
unknown aetiology. Associations with breast cancer have been suggested particularly with …

Radial scars (RSs) or complex sclerosing lesions (CSLs) of the breast are benign radiologic
and histologic entities. With the introduction of population-based screening programs, their …

Aims The diagnosis of radial scars/complex sclerosing lesions (RSs/CSLs) onpercutaneous
biopsy carries a risk of histological underestimation. Consequently, surgical excision is often …

The radial scar (RS) or complex sclerosing lesion (CSL) of the breast represents a
management dilemma on diagnosis at breast core needle biopsy because of the risk of …

Background We assessed the cancer upstage rate of Radial Scars (RS), and Complex
Sclerosing Lesions (CSL), and risk-stratified lesions based on radiological and pathological …
