Out of 271 papillary lesions, 195 (80.0%) were benign, 21 (7.7%) were atypical, and 55 (20.3%) were malignant. There were no false negatives or underestimated atypical papillomas in the VAR group. However, in the ACNB group, the false-negative rate was 7.6% (12 of 157 benign papillomas, 95% CI; 4.4–12.9%, p = 0.039) and the atypical papilloma underestimation rate was 33% (five of 15 atypical papillomas, 95% CI; 15.2–58.3%, p = 0.135). The histological upgrade rates of the diagnosis for papillary breast lesions were 0% for the VAR (0 of 66) group and 10.2% for the ACNB (21 of 206) group before adjusting for the population (p = 0.003).
ACNB was associated with significantly higher false-negative and histological upgrade rates of diagnosis for papillary breast lesions than VAR.
