: Our study population overlapped with one prior study (Weaver et al, <i>Insights into Imaging</i> 2021;12(1):193) that compared rates of biopsy clip migration and hematoma formation during conventional and lateral-arm biopsy approach for mammographically guided breast biopsies. That study took place at one of the two breast centers included in this study (389 biopsies in 356 patients), and that study time period was August 2016 through April 2018. Our study included all consecutive mammographically guided breast biopsies performed at two breast centers from January 2016 through December 2019. Moreover, our analysis included more than just biopsy clip migration and hematoma formation.
