The majority of breast lesions are benign, but
approximately 1 in 10 women will develop the disease. All women are at risk
for breast cancer but some have a higher risk due to BRCA mutations.
The UAMS Breast Pathology
consultation service is the only one of its kind in the state of Arkansas.
We provide expert diagnostic services for breast specimens, including core
biopsies, lumpectomies, and mastectomies. Our laboratory has provided
ancillary testing for breast carcinomas, including immunohistochemical
studies for estrogen and progesterone for the last twelve years. We are also
fully accredited to run immunohistochemistry studies for her 2-neu as well
as fluorescence in situ hybridization. FISH for her 2 neu is run in the
Molecular
Pathology Division.
