[Mammographic aspects of Aschoff's proliferative centres].

The pseudotumoral feature of radial scar cause considerable diagnostic problems mammographically and at the extemporaneous examination. From a series of 28 cases, the authors confront their experience with classical mammographic data and emphasize: the difficulty in analysing the central area of the radiating structure, the possibility of glandular retraction, the relationship between spicules and radiolucent linear structures. These radiological criterias do not allow us to affirm the diagnosis. Extraction with histological examination of the operatory fragment is the only attitude.
