Abstract
Objective To analyze the ultrasonic features and geometric roundness of triple negative breast cancer(TNBC)and breast fibroadenoma(FA)with the maximum diameter<2 cm
and to improve the clinical diagnostic accuracy of TNBC.Methods The ultrasound images were retrospectively analyzed in 74 patients with TNBC(TNBC group)and 125 patients with FA(FA group)who received surgical treatment and were pathologically confirmed with the maximum diameter<2 cm in our hospital.The age
size
shape
orientation
margin
echo pattern
posterior echo features
calcification and geometric roundness of the lesions were compared between the two groups.The independent impact factors of TNBC with maximum diameter<2 cm were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis
and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the diagnostic efficiency.Results The average age of TNBC group was(47.3±10.7)years old
and that of FA group was(35.5±9.0)years old
the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Compared with FA group
the probability of irregular shape(49/74)
non parallel orientation(30/74)
irregular edge(65/74)and posterior echo enhancement(48/74)was higher in TNBC group(all P<0.05).Most of the tumors in TNBC group were classified into BI-RADS 4 and 5
and the difference was statistically significant compared with FA group(both P<0.05).The average geometric roundness of TNBC group(81%±9%)was higher than that of FA group(66%±11%)
and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that age>45 years old(OR=7.81)
irregular shape(OR=4.29)
non parallel orientation(OR=8.32)
posterior echo enhancement(OR=7.54)
BI-RADS classification of 4 categories(4 A:OR=1.06
4 B:OR=13.54
4 C:OR=31.92)and 5 categories(OR=40.07)
as well as the geometric roundness>80%(OR=71.62)were independent impact factors for TNBC with the maximum diameter<2 cm.ROC curve analysis showed that the cut-off value of geometric roundness in TNBC was 80%
area under the curve was 0.816
and the sensitivity and specificity were 77.2% and 74.6%
respectively.Conclusion Compared with FA
TNBC patients with the maximum diameter<2 cm are older
and showed more suspicious ultrasound features and larger geometric roundness
which is helpful for the differential diagnosis of TNBC with the maximum diameter<2 cm.
