Abstract EN
Purpose.
For accurate resection of nonpalpable malignant breast lesions with a tumor-free resection rim, an exact and stable wire localization is essential.
We tested the resistance towards traction force of different localization devices used in our clinic for breast lesions in two types of tissue.
Materials and Methods.
Eight different commercially available hook-wire devices were examined for resistance towards traction force using an analogue spring scale.
Results.
Most systems showed a high level of movement already under small traction force.
Retractable systems with round hooks such as the Bard DuaLok , the Fil d’Ariane, and the RPLN Breast Localization Device withstood less traction force than the other systems.
However, the Bard DuaLok system was very resistant towards a small traction force of 50 g when compared to the other systems.
The Ultrawire Breast Localization Device withstood the most traction force in softer tissue and Kopans Breast Lesion Localization Needle withstood the most force in harder tissue.
Conclusion.
The Ultrawire Breast LocalizationDevice and Kopans Breast Lesion Localization Needle withstood the most traction force.
In general retractable systems withstand less traction force than nonretractable systems.
