Conclusions: The interim results of the MICRA trial demonstrate that 8
ultrasound-guided core-biopsies of the breast in patients with excellent
response on MRI after NST are not accurate enough in identifying patients
with pCR for omission of surgery.

Background: Implant-based breast reconstruction (IBBR) after mastectomy
either with TE or DTI in pre-pectoral position has been widely accepted. The
pre-pec breast reconstruction, in fact, spares muscles, preserving the natural
anatomy and reduces post-operative pain. Moreover, the pre-pec approach is
associated to a decreased risk of capsular contracture and animation
deformities. An increasing number of women, who undergo IBBR, will require
post mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT), since the meta-analysis of Early
Breast Cancer TrialistsCollaborative Group (EBCTCG) confirmed a
significant reduction of both local recurrence and breast cancer mortality in
patients with pathological nodal involvement and locally advanced cancer.
Methods: Between January 2013 and December 2018, 521 pre-pectoral
IBBR were performed and prospectively recorded at University of Florence
Careggi teaching hospital, Italy. Two hundred and eight were two-stage pre-
pectoral TE IBBR and 313 cases were DTI. In both cases, a titanium-coated
polypropylene synthetic mesh (Ti-LOOP Bra, pfm medical Cologne,
Germany) was used to cover the prosthesis and create a pre-pectoral
pocket in a subcutaneous plane. Seventy three cases underwent PMRT,
which was performed 10 to 20 weeks after surgery and in between first and
second surgical stage in case of TE reconstruction. In case of adjuvant
chemotherapy, PMRT was delivered at the end of medical treatment. We
analysed short term complications of PMRT and reconstruction failure rate in
pre-pectoral IBBR. In case of DTI we observed complications whithin 6
months after PMRT. In case of TE we considered complications both after
PMRT and 6 months after second stage procedure.
Results: The most frequent complication was seroma, which occurred in 8
cases (10.9%). Infection rate was 5.4% (4 cases) and in only two cases
(2.7%) the implant was removed and replaced with a retro-pectoral TE: in
both cases the patients were active smokers and with BMI > 30.

Conclusions: This is the most numerous series of PMRT inpre-pec IBBR
and the only one with a synthetic mesh. Currently, there are few studies, only
with ADM, that analyzed pre-pectoral DTI and TE in the se tting of PMRT. Our
prospective series showed that PMRT in the setting of pre-pec IBBR with
synthetic mesh is surgically safe, except in not-fit patients and active
smokers, who shouldnt be candidate for pre-pectoral reconstruction overall.

Background: Ductal Carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is considered a potential
precursor of invasive breast cancer (BC) and is treated by mastectomy or
breast conserving surgery (BCS) often supplemented with radiotherapy
(RT). This study aimed to assess the long-term risk of ipsilateral subsequent
in situ and invasive lesions after a diagnosis of primary DCIS and the
association with initial DCIS treatment.
Material and Methods: The study cohort comprised all women diagnosed
with DCIS between 1989 and 2004 in the Netherlands. Subsequent
ipsilateral in situ (iDCIS) and/or invasive breast (iBC) lesions, and death
were derived by linkage with the Netherlands Cancer Registry (NCR) and the
nationwide registry of histo- and cytopathology in the Netherlands (PALGA).
Information was complete until 2017. Cumulative incidence following
mastectomy, BCS only and BCS supplemented with RT were assessed,
with death as competing risk. Associations of DCIS treatment with risk of
subsequent ipsilateral invasive and in situ lesions were studied in uni- and
multivariable Cox models.
Results: Our study cohort comprised 10,051 women with a median follow-
up of 15.7 years. After 20 years of follow-up cumulative incidence of iBC was
2.0% after mastectomy, 11.6% after BCS+RTand 17.5% after BCS only; 20-
year cumulative incidence of iDCIS was 6.1% after BCS+RT and 12.3% after
BCS only. In the first five years of follow-up, patients treated with BCS had a
higher risk of developing subsequent iDCIS (HR 3.3; 95%CI 2.54.2) and
iBC (HR 4.1; 95%CI 3.05.7) compared to those who also received RT.
However, this risk difference between treatment with or without RT after BCS
stabilized after ten years of follow-up (HR > 10 years for BCS+RT versus
BCS only 0.7; (95%CI 0.31.3 for iDCIS and HR 1.1; 95%CI 0.91.4 for iBC,
respectively). Influence of age, grade and method of detection will be
available at EBCC.
Conclusions: In the first five years following diagnosis, patients treated
with BCSonly had a higher risk of developing a subsequent in situ or invasive
lesion than patients treated with BCS+RT. The favorable effect of
radiotherapy for prognosis of BCS treated patients disappeared after ten
years of follow-up.

Background: Benign breast diseases (BBD) are related with an increased
risk of developing breast cancer and have been proposed as a risk factor to
personalize breast cancer screening strategies. This risk varies significantly
depending on the pathological characteristics of the BBD. Our aim was to
explore the differences in the risk of breast cancer across BBD types
diagnosed at prevalent or incident screen in a population-based mammog-
raphy program.
Materials and Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study with
data from 629,087 women who underwent 2,327,384 mammographic
examinations at the long-standing population-based screening program in
Spain between 1995 and 2015, and followed up until 2017. Each BBD was
classified according to the screening type as prevalent and incident, and
according to the BBD type as non-proliferative and proliferative. We used
partly conditional Cox hazard regression to estimate the adjusted hazard
ratios (aHR) and we plotted the adjusted survival curves.
Results: During a mean 7.8 years of follow-up, 9,431 breast cancers and
9,184 benign breast diseases were diagnosed in the study population. There
was a strong association between presence of a BBD and the risk of
subsequent breast cancer. Compared with those without a BBD, women with
incident BBD (aHR: 2.67) had a higher risk than those with prevalent BBD
(aHR: 1.87). In addition, women with proliferative BBD had an increased risk
than with those with non-proliferative BBD (aHR: 3.28 vs 1.96). The highest
risk was found in women with an incident proliferative BBD (aHR: 3.92).
There was no interaction between screening type and BBD type (p-value
0.83).
Conclusion: We found that classifying benign breast diseases according
to screening type predicts the risk of subsequent breast cancer independ-
ently to the type of BBD. This information could be useful to design
personalized breast cancer screening strategies aimed at improving the
effectiveness of breast cancer screening.
