what is breast niddle?

Answer 1

Are you sure the word isn't needle...as in core "needle biopsy?"

A core needle biopsy is a percutaneous ("through the skin") procedure that involves removing small samples of breast tissue using a hollow "core" needle. For palpable (able to be felt) lesions, this is accomplished by fixing the lesion with one hand and performing a freehand needle biopsy with the other. In the case of non-palpable lesions (those unable to be felt), stereotactic mammography or ultrasound image guidance is used. Stereotactic mammography involves using computers to pinpoint the exact location of a breast mass based on mammograms (x-rays) taken from two different angles. The computer coordinates will help the physician to guide the needle to the correct area in the breast. With ultrasound, the radiologist or surgeon will watch the needle on the ultrasound monitor to help guide it to the area of concern.

The needle used during core needle biopsy is larger than the needle used with FNA (usually a 16, 14, or 11 gauge needle is used with the core needle biopsy procedure). The core needle biopsy needle also has a special cutting edge.

How is Core Needle Biopsy Performed?

First, the breast area is anesthesized with an injection of lidocaine. Then, the needle is placed into the breast with the patient position in either the upright or prone (face down) position. As with FNA, the radiologist or surgeon will guide the needle into the area of concern by palpating (feeling) the lump. If the lump is non-palpable (cannot be felt), the core needle biopsy is performed under image-guidance using either stereotactic mammography or ultrasound.

Three to six separate core needle insertions are typically needed to obtain a sufficient sample of breast tissue. Patients may experience a slight pressure during core needle biopsy but should not experience any significant pain. As tissue samples are taken, clicks may be heard from the needle and sampling instrument. Typically, samples approximately 0.75 inches long (approximately 2.0 centimeters) and 0.0625 inches (approximately 0.16 centimeters) in diameter are removed. The samples are then sent to the pathology laboratory for diagnosis.

The core needle biopsy procedure typically only takes a few minutes, and most patients are able to resume normal activity almost immediately afterwards. Core needle biopsy may cause some bruising but does not usually leave an external scar or an internal scar that is seen on later mammograms (which can obscure future mammogram interpretations). However, core needle biopsy may not be suitable for patients who have very small or very hard breast lumps.

Answer 2

"Niddle" can be a misspelling of 'Needle.' Biopsies and piercings can be done with needles, you might mean a breast lump that needs to be tested for cancer, or a nipple piercing done with a needle.

"Niddle" can be related to Douglas Adams, a group formerly called The Douglas Adams Society, or Dougsoc. Unsure of how that relates to breasts.

"Niddle" can be a misspelling of 'Nipple.' The nipple is the part of the breast that a baby latches onto when nursing, it usually protrudes.

"Niddle" can be a misspelling of 'Middle,' if you meant Breast Middle, maybe that could be the milk ducts?

Niddle-Noddle means bobbing or turning the head, as in "Little Robin red breast:" “Niddle, Noddle Went his head..." A robin is a bird with a red front (breast).
