AB A  55-year-old  woman  presents  for  routine  screening  mammogram.  The  patient  does  not  have  any  complaints  but  has  a  family  history  of  breast  cancer  in  a  sister  at  the  age  of  40  years.  Her  mammogram  demonstrates  an  irregular  mass  with  possible  local  spread  (Figures  95-1  and  95-2).  She  is  referred  to  a  breast  surgeon,  and  the  biopsy  confirms  the  diagnosis  of  breast  cancer.
