In addition, mammography is a successful worldwide screening test concerning the investigation and the early diagnosis and of breast neoplastic diseases. However, in many cases because of differential diagnosis, breast biopsy is needed to resolve the diagnostic dilemma. The common way to perform breast biopsy is by:<br \/>\u2022 Fine Needle Aspiration (FNA)<br \/>\u2022 Core Biopsy<br \/>\u2022 Open Biopsy<br \/>The FNA is actually a cytological examination of the suspicious cystic or solid masses of the breast. FNA is commonly used for the aspiration of the breast cystic tumor. On the other hand, core biopsy or open biopsy is used for the histological documentation of breast pathology, however more often for the solid suspicious masses.<br \/>The open biopsy offers the advantage of the complete extraction of the tumor, however under anesthesia, especially for patients with deep breast tumor. In case of more superficial masses, local anesthesia could be used as well. Furthermore, in case of gross breast with deep and small tumors, guide wire (KOPANS) might be necessary for the precise and complete excision of the breast neoplasia <strong>(Figure 1).<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-124555f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"124555f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-e17d4d5\" data-id=\"e17d4d5\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-d1732bf\" data-id=\"d1732bf\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ceb7e00 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"ceb7e00\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1066\" src=\"https:\/\/ikalogiannidis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\u03bc\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2-\u03b5\u03b9\u03ba-1-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-1914\" alt=\"\u03bc\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2-\u03b5\u03b9\u03ba 1\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ikalogiannidis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\u03bc\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2-\u03b5\u03b9\u03ba-1-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/ikalogiannidis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\u03bc\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2-\u03b5\u03b9\u03ba-1-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/ikalogiannidis.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/\u03bc\u03b1\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2-\u03b5\u03b9\u03ba-1-1-768x1023.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Figure 1.
