The VABB procedure uses a rotating cutting probe inserted through a 3 to 4 mm incision under ultrasound guidance. The vacuum device aspirates tissue samples or the entire lesion through multiple passes of the probe without making a large cut. It is typically performed under local anesthesia as a day-care procedure and offers significant cosmetic advantage over open surgical excision for accessible breast lumps.

Conditions that may require VABB procedure include:
Symptoms that may prompt a VABB procedure include:
Breast lesions amenable to VABB include fibroadenomas, which are the most common benign solid breast tumors in young women. Breast cysts are fluid-filled sacs that may be simple or complex. Intraductal papillomas are small wart-like growths in the milk ducts. Atypical ductal hyperplasia is a precancerous condition requiring complete removal. Microcalcifications may indicate early cancer and require tissue sampling.

VABB is recommended for benign breast lesions less than 3 cm in diameter that are visible on ultrasound, for women who prefer a cosmetically superior alternative to open surgery, for multiple small lesions requiring removal in a single session, and for diagnostic excision of borderline lesions. It is not suitable for lesions near the nipple, chest wall, or implants where ultrasound guidance is difficult.
Evaluation before VABB includes:
Imaging confirmation and pathology review guide the decision to proceed with VABB.
VABB is performed under local anesthesia with ultrasound guidance. The radiologist or surgeon makes a tiny skin incision of 3 to 4 mm and inserts the vacuum-assisted probe. The probe uses rotating cutting action and vacuum suction to remove the lesion in multiple core samples. The procedure takes 30 to 60 minutes and results in near-complete lesion excision with minimal tissue disruption.
The VABB procedure involves:
Recovery after VABB is very quick. Most patients go home within 2 hours after the procedure. Mild bruising or swelling at the biopsy site may persist for 1 to 2 weeks. Strenuous activity and heavy lifting should be avoided for 1 week. A follow-up ultrasound is performed after 4 to 6 weeks to confirm complete lesion removal and ensure proper healing.
Potential complications of VABB include:
VABB is performed under local anesthesia and is generally well tolerated. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. Mild bruising or swelling at the site may occur afterward and resolves within a few days.
A VABB procedure typically takes 30 to 60 minutes depending on the size and location of the breast lesion. It is performed as a day-care procedure and patients are usually discharged within 2 hours after monitoring.
VABB is primarily a diagnostic technique but can remove small benign lesions. For confirmed breast cancer, VABB provides tissue diagnosis while definitive surgery is needed for complete treatment.
VABB leaves a tiny 3 to 4 mm incision with minimal scarring. The cosmetic result is significantly better than open surgery, making it a preferred option for accessible breast lesions.
