  • Title: Radial scar with microcalcification mammographic-pathologic correlation: case report.
    Author: Boonjunwetwat D, Isarankura P, Sampatanukul P.
    Journal: J Med Assoc Thai; 1999 Apr; 82(4):405-9. PubMed ID: 10410504.
    Abstract:
    Radial scar, a descriptive term for a pathologic lesion, is composed of central area of fibroelastosis and distorted ducts, and peripheral zone of intraductal hyperplasia. This lesion often presents as a spiculated lesion, sometimes with microcalcifications, on mammography which may mimic malignancy such as tubular carcinoma. We report a case of radial scar with clustered microcalcifications incidentally found in the screened mammogram.
