Brief Summary:
The purpose of this patient tracking program is to monitor long term safety and effectiveness of the Novilase™ device and method in real world application.

Condition or disease
Benign Breast Conditions; Breast Fibroadenomas

Detailed Description:
ABLATE is a prospective, observational multi-center tracking database which will evaluate clinical outcomes from patients undergoing Novilase for benign breast conditions (i.e. fibroadenomas, papillomas, etc). Data captured will assess the potential advantages and disadvantages of the procedure as compared with lumpectomy. Tumor characteristics, equipment used, complications, patient satisfaction and cosmesis ratings will also be tracked.
