The occurrence of pseudoaneurysm increases with the conditions of increased breast vascularity like cancer, pregnancy and lactation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case Report:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We present two cases of pseudoaneurysm formation secondary to core biopsies of the breasts. The first patient was an 82-year-old female patient who presented with breast swelling and bruising after multiple clinical core biopsies of the left breast. Our second patient was a 47-year-old lady who presented with a palpable lump following ultrasound-guided core biopsies of the left breast. Ultrasound showed hypoechoic pulsating area with evidence of internal colour flow in connection with a vessel in both cases. Imaging appearances were in keeping with a pseudoaneurysm of the breast.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Most pseudoaneurysms are secondary to interventional procedures in the breast. Common clinical presentation is a pulsatile, palpable mass at the biopsy site soon after the biopsy or later. On B mode imaging, it presents as a well-circumscribed mass of mixed echogenicity. Typical waveform in spectral Doppler and \u2018yin-yang\u2019 sign in colour Doppler is demonstrated with a turbulent internal flow. There are different treatment options to manage pseudoaneurysms of the breast.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Pseudoaneurysm of the breast should be considered if a patient presents with a breast mass\/lump close to a recent biopsy site. On clinical examination, pulsatility of the mass should raise the suspicion and definite diagnosis can be made with spectral and colour Doppler US scan.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/1742271x241233951","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,14]],"date-time":"2024-03-14T02:05:10Z","timestamp":1710381910000},"page":"291-295","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Two cases of breast pseudoaneurysm following core biopsy: A very rare complication with different treatment options"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"32","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2910-6506","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Champika","family":"Jayathilake","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Princess Royal University Hospital, King\u2019s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Orpington, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4093-6490","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Thamara","family":"Uyangoda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Princess Royal University Hospital, King\u2019s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Orpington, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dimitris","family":"Kitsos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Princess Royal University Hospital, King\u2019s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Orpington, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6955-0789","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ali","family":"Sever","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Guy\u2019s and St. Thomas\u2019 Hospital, London, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Abdul","family":"Kasem","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Princess Royal University Hospital, King\u2019s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Orpington, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6445-742X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anna","family":"Metafa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Princess Royal University Hospital, King\u2019s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, Orpington, UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1742271X241233951","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2214\/AJR.05.1647"},{"key":"bibr2-1742271X241233951","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.radcr.2020.10.025"},{"key":"bibr3-1742271X241233951","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3941\/jrcr.v15i10.4223"},{"key":"bibr4-1742271X241233951","unstructured":"Richardson AJ, Kesmodel S, Lopez AJ, et al.
