Medullary carcinoma of the breast (TOPNOTCH)
136
The histologic hallmark of this tumor is the pattern of single infiltrating tumor cells, often only one cell in width, or in loose clusters or sheets
Invasive lobular carcinoma (TOPNOTCH)
137
This is a rare manifestation of breast cancer and presents as a unilateral erythematous eruption with a scale crust
Paget disease (TOPNOTCH)
138
These are stellate lesions characterized by a central nidus of entrapped glands in a hyalinized stroma
Complex Sclerosing Lesion or Radial Scar (TOPNOTCH)
139
Morphology: composed of multiple branching fibrovascular cores, each having a connective tissue axis lined by luminal and myoepithelial cells
Papillomas (TOPNOTCH)
140
What is the most common clinical presentation of breast disease
Pain (TOPNOTCH)
141
The principal mammographic signs of breast carcinoma
densities and calfications (TOPNOTCH)
142
Morphology: the main histologic feature is keratinizing squamous epithelium extending to an abnormal depth into the orifices of the nipple ducts
Periductal mastitis (TOPNOTCH)
143
Mammographic appearance: Large lobulated "popcorn" calcifications
Fibroadenoma (TOPNOTCH)
144
Morphology: characterized by solid sheets of pleomorphic cells with high-grade nuclei and central necrosis detected mamographically as clusters or linear and branching microcalcifications
Comedocarcinoma (TOPNOTCH)
145
Morphology: Terminal ducts (without lobule formation) are lined by a multilayered epithelium with small papillary tufts and surrounding periductal hyalinization and fibrosis.
Gynecomastia (TOPNOTCH)
146
Morphology: terminal duct lobular unit is enlarged, and the acini are compressed and distorted within the lumens. Calcifications are often present within the lumens.
Sclerosing adenosis(TOPNOTCH)
147
Morphology: central fibrovascular core extends from the wall of a duct. The papillae arborize within the lumen and are lined by myoepithelial and luminal cells
Intraductal papilloma(TOPNOTCH)
148
Cellular proliferation resembling ductal carcinoma in situ or lobular carcinoma in situ but lacking sufficient qualitative or quantitative features for a diagnosis of carcinoma in situ
Atypical hyperplasia(TOPNOTCH)
149
Refers to a proliferation of cells identical to those of LCIS but the cells do not fill or distend more than 50% of the acini within a lobule.
Atypical Lobular hyperplasia(TOPNOTCH)
150
Recognized by its histologic resemblance to ductal carcinoma in situ, including a monomorphic cell population, regular cell placement, and round lumina. However, the lesions are characteristically limited in extend, and the cells are not completely monomorphic in type or they fail to completely fill ductal spaces
Atypical hyperplasia(TOPNOTCH)
151
What are the two major risk factors for breast carcinoma?
Hormonal and Genetics/family history(TOPNOTCH)
152
This is a subtype of DCIS which is recognized by bulbous protrusions without a fibrovascular core, often forming complex intraductal patents.
Micropapillary DCIS(TOPNOTCH)
