Ultrasound-guided Breast Biopsy in the Breast Health Clinic [English] Permalink Public

You need a biopsy if you have a lump or other change in your breast, or if you have a recent mammogram or ultrasound showing a change in your breast tissue. Many tissue changes are harmless, but we want to make sure the change is normal. The only way to be sure your breast is healthy is to remove a small piece of tissue, called a biopsy (sounds like bye-op-see). This pamphlet gives you information on where and when the biopsy is done, how to prepare, what to expect, how to care for yourself afterwards, and when to get help. (English) Colour

Ectopic Pregnancy and Methotrexate (Fraser Health) [English] Permalink Public

The most common place for an ectopic pregnancy is in a fallopian tube. If the pregnancy continues to grow here, the tiny fallopian tube can burst open. A burst fallopian tube results in serious and possibly life-threatening internal bleeding. To protect you, the ectopic pregnancy must be ended. Consulting with a specialist (an obstetrician/gynecologist), we have given you a medication called ‘methotrexate’ to end your ectopic pregnancy. This medication usually stops the growth of the pregnancy. (English) Colour
