Yearly mammo showed stable rgt breast nodule consistent with benign etiology (br-rads 2 benign) stayed the same for 2yrs im confused yesorno be worry?

No,: don't worry about it. BIRADS 2 lesions are benign and require no further work up. Many times the radiologist doesn't even bother mentioning them in the report. The theoretical chance of malignancy of such lesions is less than 2%, but in practice it is substantially less than 1%. Follow up with routine annual mammography is sufficient.

No: A BI-RADS 2 breast nodule that hasn't changed in 2 years is not some thing about which you need to worry. Hope this helps.
