Introduction
Radial scar (RS) is a pathological diagnosis which is classified as B3 indeterminate due to the associated risk of malignancy. Further tissue sampling is therefore required, which traditionally was with surgical excision. In Leeds since 2009 we have been managing RS with vacuum-assisted biopsy, if <15 mm with no atypia; otherwise surgical management is taken. We reviewed cases since 2009 to identify how RS has been managed and if this is appropriate.
