Breast calcifications refer to deposits of calcium salts that appear in breast tissue, typically presenting as tiny white dots or linear white streaks, which can be detected through mammography or breast ultrasound. The treatment of breast calcifications generally depends on individual circumstances and mainly includes the following approaches: 1. Observation: For younger patients with small, regularly shaped calcifications and no symptoms, regular monitoring may be sufficient without requiring specific treatment. 2. Medication: Depending on the underlying cause of the calcifications, drug therapy—such as calcium channel inhibitors or estrogen receptor modulators—may be used, but must be administered under a physician's guidance. 3. Surgical treatment: Patients with large, irregularly shaped calcifications or those showing signs of malignant change may require surgical excision. Surgery is generally the most effective method, as it removes the affected tissue and reduces the risk of recurrence. 4. Radiofrequency ablation: This minimally invasive procedure uses high-frequency electrical currents to heat and destroy abnormal tissue, achieving therapeutic effects. It is characterized by simplicity, minimal trauma, and rapid recovery, making it suitable for patients with multiple small calcifications.
