Recurrence 11 Years Later? - Linear Non Mass Enhancement

Hello All - I had a small, pure tubular breast cancer in 2014. Biopsied often following lumpectomy and radiation due to fat necrosis, and eventual excision of tissue quieted that down.

MRI last week indicates 1.1 cm linear non-mass enhancement in contralateral breast. No biopsy available for three weeks, and surgeon sent in the NP to repeat the data on radiology report so my understanding is low.

If you have information as to how to prepare for a possible recurrence / experience with this type of finding and results - appreciate your thoughts and comments. Dr Google has not been helpful :) - emotionally or academically.

Thank you!

Much love and good health to all,

Belle

    Hi Again - Just leaving this result in case it helps anyone with a similar situation: 10% of these findings are apparently not seen again when it’s time for the biopsy and are considered probably benign with a 6 month repeat MRI ordered. Unusual and surprising result - sharing in case it’s of use to anyone on the boards. Best wishes.
