Event Description

It was reported that on (b)(6) 2023, during a brevera procedure, after the initial biopsy malfunctioned, the fist needle had issues with the aperture which caused an asymmetry in the breast and lidocaine and blood prevented any visual identification of the density.Due to this the procedure was aborted and could not be completed.Minimal damage was reported to the breast, and a small scratch to her skin to the side of the puncture wound.It did not require any further clinical treatment other than normal.No additional information was received.
