Overview

Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Cryosurgery kills cancer cells by freezing them. Cryosurgery followed by lumpectomy or mastectomy may be an effective treatment for breast lesions.

PURPOSE: Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of cryosurgery in treating women who have breast lesions.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES: * Determine the feasibility of temperature-monitored, ultrasound-guided cryosurgery in women with highly suspicious breast lesions. * Determine the safety of this procedure in these patients. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients undergo cryoablation of up to two breast lesions. Within 3-21 days, patients undergo lumpectomy or mastectomy. Patients are followed at 1, 4, 8, and 12 weeks after lumpectomy or mastectomy. PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A maximum of 25 patients will be accrued for this study.
