Article Long-Term Outcomes of Türkiye's First Population-Based Mammography Screening Program: a Decade of Breast Cancer Detection and Survival Analysis in Bahçeşehir(Bmc, 2025) Ozcinar, Beyza; Aribal, Erkin; Cabioglu, Neslihan; Gurdal, Sibel Ozkan; Varol, Gamze; Akyurt, Nuran; Ozmen, VahitBackgroundThe Bah & ccedil;e & scedil;ehir population-based mammography screening program (BMSP) is an example of T & uuml;rkiye's first population-based screening program. This study aims to reveal the successful implementation of population-based secreening program in one of the low- and middle-income countries, T & uuml;rkiye and long-term results of patients diagnosed with breast cancer during BMSP. MethodsThis study was conducted between 2009 and 2019, in the Bah & ccedil;e & scedil;ehir county of Istanbul. Women between the ages of 40 and 69 living in this region were invited every two years to undergo clinical breast examination (CBE) and mammography screening. All data was recorded in a dedicated software program. Women diagnosed with breast cancer were followed as a separate cohort. ResultsDuring the 10-year screening period, 8,825 women were screened and 146 (1.7%) breast cancers were detected. The median age at diagnosis for these patients was 52.9 years (40-69). The risk of breast cancer was 1.39 times higher (95% CI: 1.01-1.93) in women aged >= 50 compared to those less than 50 years (p = 0.045). The Cox regression analysis revealed that age at first birth, and number of births were significant predictors of breast cancer risk (p < 0.001, and p = 0.011). The breast cancer rate tends to increase as the breast density category progresses from A to D (p < 0.001). The median follow-up time for 146 breast cancer patients was 95.3 months. The 10-year breast cancer specific survival rate was 85%. ConclusionsThis study demonstrates that with a committed team and sufficient infrastructure, screening mammography can be effectively carried out in T & uuml;rkiye, leading to early detection and lower mortality rates. The recommended age to commence screening is 40 years old.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Comparison of Magnetic Seed and Rfid Methods in the Localization of Non-Palpable Breast Lesions(Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2024) Sanli, Ahmet Necati; Sanli, Deniz E. Tekcan; Golshan, Mehra; Sezgin, Efe; Celik, Varol; Aydogan, FatihBackground: Many methods have been developed for localizing non-palpable breast lesions. This study investigated the success rate and surgical results of the magnetic seed (Magseed) and radiofrequency identification (RFID) method, which are relatively new compared to standard wire-guided localizations. Materials and Methods: 20 simulation (10 Magseed, 10 RFID) models were created using turkey breasts and raisins. Raisins containing magnetic seed and RFID tags were placed on the turkey breast. Sentimag (R) probe was used for the Magseed group, and Faxitron LOCalizer (TM) System device was used in the RFID group. Both methods were evaluated in terms of accuracy in detecting breast lesion localization, operation times, excised tissue weights, total resection volume, surgical margin negativity, and re-excision rates. Results: Lesion localization success in both techniques was 100%. While procedure times were statistically significantly shorter in the Magseed group, incision lengths were shorter in the RFID group (P = 0.013, P = 0.007, respectively). No statistically significant difference was found between the groups for the weight of the removed parts, total resection volume, and surgical margin distance (P > 0.05). Conclusion: In this feasibility study, it was concluded that neither the RFID nor Magseed methods had a significant advantage over each other, in terms of localization detection and surgical margin negativity, and both methods could be used successfully for localization.
