Glycogen-rich clear cell carcinoma of the breast is rare type of invasive breast cancer.
It may be abbreviated GRCC.
General
- Very rare - fewer than 100 reported as cases in 2012.[1]
- Possibly a variant of apocrine carcinoma.[2]
- Prognosis similar to invasive ductal carcinoma in a smaller case-control study when match for stage.[3]
Microscopic
Features:
- Groups of cells with abundant clear cytoplasm - need to comprise 90% of the tumour.[4]
- Various architectural arrangements: cords, trabeculae, clusters, cribriform.
- Minimal nuclear pleomorphism.
Notes:
- Histologic appearance may be similar to hyalinizing clear cell carcinoma.
DDx:
- Signet-ring cell carcinoma.
- Lipid-rich carcinoma.
- Apocrine carcinoma.
- Secretory carcinoma.
