Anaplastic large cell lymphoma and breast implants
Anaplastic large cell lymphoma and breast implants: Results from a structured expert consultation process. Plastic and reconstructive surgery, Sept 2011, vol. 128(3), p. 629-639.
Kim, B., et al.
http://journals.lww.com/plasreconsurg/Fulltext/2011/09000/Anaplastic_Large_Cell_Lymphoma_and_Breast.1.aspx
There are increasing concerns about a possible association between anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) and breast implants. The authors conducted a structured expert consultation process to evaluate the evidence for the association, its clinical significance, and a potential biological model based on their interpretation of the published evidence.

A patient death attributable to implant-related primary anaplastic large cell lymphoma of the breast
A patient death attributable to implant-related primary anaplastic large cell lymphoma of the breast. Plastic and reconstructive surgery, Sept 2011, vol. 128(3), p. 112e-118e.
Carty, MJ, et al.
http://journals.lww.com/plasreconsurg/Fulltext/2011/09000/A_Patient_Death_Attributable_to_Implant_Related.5.aspx
Implant-related primary anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) of the breast is a rare clinical entity. With increasing attention being paid to this disease, most cases reported to date in the literature have demonstrated indolent clinical courses responsive to explantation, capsulectomy, chemotherapy, and/or radiotherapy. The authors describe a case of bilateral implant-related primary ALCL of the breast that proved refractory to both standard and aggressive interventions, ultimately resulting in patient death secondary to disease progression. The authors situate this case in the context of the current state of knowledge regarding implant-related primary ALCL of the breast and suggest that this entity is generally, but not universally, indolent in nature.

Jewell, M., et al.
http://journals.lww.com/plasreconsurg/Abstract/2011/09000/Anaplastic_Large_T_Cell_Lymphoma_and_Breast.4.aspx
Anecdotal reports and one case-control study suggested an association, without evidence of causation, between breast implants and anaplastic lymphoma kinase–negative anaplastic large T-cell lymphoma (ALCL), a rare non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. This review summarizes the published evidence, including case reports and epidemiologic studies.

Extending the age range for breast screening in England

Screening outcomes in women over age 70 who self-refer in the NHSBSP in England
Screening outcomes in women over age 70 who self-refer in the NHSBSP in England. Journal of medical screening, June 2011, vol. 18(2), p. 291-295.

The NHS breast screening programme (NHSBSP) in England currently invites women aged 50–70 every three years. Whilst screening is acknowledged as efficacious for women aged 50–69, several countries routinely invite women up to the age of 74. The NHSBSP in England is beginning to invite women up to the age of 73. Although the incidence of breast cancer increases with age, the possible benefits of screening older women must be balanced against shorter life expectancies and possible overdiagnosis. In England women can self-refer after reaching the invitation upper age limit.

Microcalcifications around a collegen-based breast biopsy marker: complication of biopsy with a percutaneous marking system
Microcalcifications around a collegen-based breast biopsy marker: complication of biopsy with a percutaneous marking system. AJR, August 2011, vol. 197(2), p.W353 - W357
Trop, I., et al.
http://www.ajronline.org/content/197/2/W353.abstract?rss=1
The purpose of this article is to present the cases of four women who underwent percutaneous breast biopsy with deployment of a titanium metallic marker embedded in a bioresorbable collagen plug. Routine follow-up mammography after benign pathologic results were obtained revealed new fine microcalcifications at the biopsy sites, requiring repeat biopsy. Pathologic examination confirmed the presence of microcalcifications associated with an acidophilic foreign material.

Image guided preoperative hookwire localization of nonpalpable extramammory lesions. AJR, Sept 2011, vol. 197(3), p. W525-W527
Kelan, KJ, et al.

Imaging-guided hookwire localization of nonpalpable lesions in the breast is frequently performed preoperatively. Outside the breast, this procedure is useful for planning resection of lesions in anatomic regions without intrinsic landmarks. The purpose of this study was to review an experience with hookwire localization of nonpalpable extramammary lesions.
