Q

A clinical study is performed on postmenopausal women living in Paris, France, who are between the ages of 45 and 70 years. All have been diagnosed with infiltrating ductal carcinoma positive for estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR), but negative for HER2 expression, which has been confirmed by biopsy and microscopic examination of
tissue. None has the BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation. Which of the following is most likely to indicate the highest relative risk of developing the carcinomas seen in this group of women?

Q

A 45-year-old woman has felt a poorly defined lump in her right breast for the past year. On examination, she has a nontender, firm, 16-cm mass in the upper inner quadrant of her right breast. There are no lesions of the overlying skin and no axillary lymphadenopathy. A biopsy is performed, and microscopic examination of the specimen shows the findings of stromal hypercellularity with areas of leaf like projections, nuclear pleomorphism and infiltrative borders are observed. The mass is excised with a wide margin, but recurs 1 year later. After further excision, the lesion does not recur. What is the most likely diagnosis?

Q

A 24-year-old woman notes a lump in her right breast for the past month. She is concerned because her sister was diagnosed with a poorly differentiated triple negative breast cancer at age 31. Ultrasonography of the breast shows a solid mass. Fine needle aspiration is attempted but no diagnostic cells are obtained. Mammography is performed and there is a single 1-cm density with small clustered calcifications in the right breast but no lesions of the opposite breast. Which of the following is the best course of action for this patient?

A

Biopsy to obtain tissue from the lesion

Q

A 60-year-old nulliparous woman received hormone re- placement therapy for 7 years following menopause at age 53 years. Her BMI is 33. She now undergoes screening mammography, and an irregular mass is identified in the right breast. An excisional biopsy yields a 1.5-cm mass that microscopically has invasive cells that are positive for estrogen receptor but negative for HER2, with low proliferation markers and mutated PIK3CA gene. Following surgical removal of the mass, which of the following clinical courses will most likely occur over the next year?

Q

A 25-year-old woman feels a lump in her right breast. She has normal menstrual cycles, she is G3, P3, and her last child was born 5 years ago. On examination a 2-cm, irregular, firm area is palpated beneath the lateral edge of the areola. This lumpy area is not painful
and is movable. There are no lesions of the overlying skin and no axillary lymphadenopathy.

A 68-year-old woman sees her naturopathic health care provider for a routine health examination. There are no remarkable findings on physical examination. A screening mammogram shows a 0.5-cm irregular area of increased density with scattered microcalcifications in the upper outer quad- rant of the left breast. Excisional biopsy shows atypical lobular hyperplasia. She has been on postmenopausal estrogen-progesterone therapy for the past 10 years. She has smoked 1 pack of cigarettes per day for the past 35
years. Which of the following is the most significant risk factor for the development of lobular carcinoma in patients with such lesions?

Q

A 40-year-old woman has noticed an enlarging mass in her left breast for the past 2 years. The physician palpates a 4-cm firm mass. Following biopsy, a simple mastectomy is performed with axillary lymph node sampling. On gross sectioning, the mass has a soft, tan, fleshy surface. Histologically, the mass is composed of large cells with vesicular nuclei and prominent nucleoli. There is a marked lymphocytic infiltrate within the tumor, and the tumor has a discrete, non-infiltrative border. No axillary node metastases are present. The tumor cells are triple negative, for HER2, estrogen receptor (ER), and progesterone receptor (PR). What is the most likely diagnosis?
