Implication

Cross-sectional study evaluates concordance of estrogen, progesterone, and HER2 receptor status in breast cancer biopsies, suggesting enhanced diagnostic accuracy.

Key Points

Trucut needle biopsy demonstrates high reliability for estrogen and progesterone receptor assessment, improving treatment accuracy.
The study found 90.6% concordance for estrogen receptor status, 78.1% for progesterone receptor, and only 51.6% for HER2/neu status.
Statistical analyses identified factors like tumor heterogeneity influencing discordance rates, emphasizing the need for additional testing.
Monitoring discrepancies in receptor status between biopsy and surgical specimens can guide personalized breast cancer management.
