Benign lymph node on mammogram
How do you know if a lymph node is malignant?
The margin of the mass usually will be sharply de- fined in a benign lesion such as a fibroadenoma or a cyst, but a mass with this appearance may be malignant in about 7% of cases. An intramammary lymph node is usually well circumscribed, smaller than 1 cm in size, and most often seen in the upper outer quadrant of the breast.
Can axillary lymph node staging be performed in primary breast cancer?

What is an intramammary lymph node?
An intramammary lymph node is usually well circumscribed, smaller than 1 cm in size, and most often seen in the upper outer quadrant of the breast. Asymmetric breast tissue nearly always can be dis- tinguished from a true mass by means of mammo- graphic evaluation.
How is a lymph node resection treated in breast cancer?
In a patient with breast cancer, a lymph node with a diffusely thickened cortex should be subjected to needle biopsy. Ultrasound-guid-ed (fine-needle or core) biopsy should target the specific focal bulge or eccentric cortical thickening [2, 5]. Ultrasound-guided biopsy is well tolerated by patients and can be quick-ly performed.
