Architecture distortion with birads 4

Posted by rb1428 @rb1428, Jan 15, 2024

Now I’m 41 and when I went for my first mamo it turned out as architectural distortion and called for additional diagnostics mamo . After diagnostics mamo technician told I need to go for ultra sound and while walking thru results radiologist told due to dense tissue she couldn’t assess clearly and ask me to schedule for biopsy which is scheduled on 1st February.

Today I got my diagnostics mamo results and mentioned birads 4 architecture distortion which making me nervous and anxious during my wait period till I get my biopsy results.

Anyone who can throw some light here is greatly appreciated.please share if anyone came across any of these situation. How can I interpret/ understand my case

@leesal123 - Thanks for your response it really helps me feel better .One more question , did had ultra sound before biopsy , if so how does ultra sound look like? are they able to find architectural distortion in ultra sound .

mine they could see in both mamo and ultra sound so as per my studies it seems more likely malignant:-(

My mammogram found an "architectural distortion," so we went to ultrasound. They saw no correlation. (I think that means the distortion did not show up in the ultrasound.) But the second mammogram (done the same day as ultrasound) did find it again. Went to stereotactic breast biopsy and it was malignant. Had lumpectomy and radiation.

Hi, I was just wondering how things went for you? I had a biopsy today with an architectural distortion found in both the screening, diagnostic, and ultrasound. Now it is a waiting game.
