Vacuum-assisted large-core breast biopsy: complications and their incidence.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To assess both the rate and types of complications associated with vacuum-assisted large-core breast biopsy (VALCBB) at our institution. METHODS: Three hundred and four VALCBBs performed in 297 patients between Sept. 18, 1997, and Mar. 30, 1999, were evaluated. Complications associated with VALCBB were assessed at the time of the procedure and in the post-procedure period. Adverse outcomes included pain, bleeding or bruising, and hematoma. Complications were also classified in terms of minor, significant, and major severity. RESULTS: VALCBB yielded non-minor (i.e., significant and major) complication rates of 3.9% during the procedure and 3.6% in the post-procedure period, with only 2 complications (vasovagal-induced seizure and migraine) that required treatment. CONCLUSION: With proper technique and patient preparation, VALCBB is a very safe procedure with a low complication rate.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
