Extraction of a foreign body from the breast parenchyma using radioguided occult lesion localisation (ROLL) technique: a new approach

Abstract

The radioguided occult lesion localisation (ROLL) technique is used for the excision of non-palpable breast lesions. This technique has not been described previously for the extraction of foreign bodies from the breast parenchyma. We report here a female patient who was admitted to our hospital with a foreign body in her right breast. The ROLL technique was used for the extraction of the foreign body.
