Invasive Ductal Carcinoma
Commonest form of breast cancer especially in poorer populations
sing incidence of screen–detected cancer in developed countries (usually smaller; much better prognosis)

Clinical presentation: Hard, irregular palpable lump
Peau d’orange (lymphatic obstruction
thickening/dimpling of the skin)
Paget’s disease of the nipple (ulceration/inflammation due to intraductal spread to the nipple)

Invasive Ductal Carcinoma
Different histologic types exist
The most common is scirrhous carcinoma (IDC of no special type)
This type is characterized grossly by an irregular, hard mass
Histology shows infiltrating clusters of malignant cells in a dense, fibrous
stroma

Invasive Lobular Carcinoma
Classic histology = small, uniform cells arranged as:
Strands/columns within a fibrous stroma (“Indian-file”)
Around uninvolved ducts ( “bull’s-eye” pattern)
Metastasize more frequently to CSF, serosal surfaces and pelvic organs

PROGNOSIS
Stage Staging systems inc.TNM and the Manchester classification
Tumour size and axillary node status
are important parameters
10-year survival rate for lymph node neg disease is 80% vs 35% for tumours with positive nodes

PHYLLODES TUMOUR
Stromal tumour arising from the intralobular stroma
Range in size from a few cm to massive lesions
Classically have a “leaf-like” configuration
![Page 72: DISEASES OF THE BREAST. Lecture Objectives At the end of the lecture the student should be able to: 1. Discuss the etiology/pathologic features of different.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070323/56649d975503460f94a81164/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
PHYLLODES TUMOUR
Most are low-grade lesions that can recur locally but do not metastasize
Others are of high-grade and exhibit aggressive clinical behaviour e.g. spread to distant sites (cystosarcoma phyllodes)

THE MALE BREAST Gynecomastia
Enlargement of the male breast due to hormonal imbalance (rel.estrogens):
Physiologic; seen at puberty or old age Pathologic; associated with cirrhosis, functional testicular tumours, certain drugs (alcohol, marijuana and anabolic steroids)

THE MALE BREAST Gynecomastia
Can be unilateral/bilateral; present as
diffuse enlargement /defined mass
Most important clinically as a marker of hyperestrinism
Neoplasia needs to be excluded in certain cases

THE MALE BREAST
Carcinoma
Very rare occurrence; female cancer to male cancer ratio approx 100:1
Pathology and behavior is similar to cancers seen in women although with less breast tissue, skin involvement
is more frequent
