Clip migration after stereotactic vacuum-assisted breast biopsy with the patient in the decubitus position

ConclusionsThin breasts, superficial lesion location, posterior lesion depth, and high specimen number were the factors associated with clip migration.Key Points•We reported clip migration after ST VAB using an upright unit with the patient in the decubitus position.•The occurrence of clinically significant clip migration (>  2 cm) in our study was 8.5%, which was within the range of the other reports with the patient undergoing ST VAB in the prone position.•Thin breasts, high specimen number, and more posterior depth were the factors associated with significant clip migration.
