Invasive papillary carcinoma of the breast is an uncommon type of invasive breast cancer.

It should not be confused with indolent behaving intracystic papillary carcinoma of the breast, also known as encapsulated papillary carcinoma of the breast).

General

  • Rare ~ 1-2% of breast carcinomas in women.[1]
  • The "solid" variant (papillae dramatically compressed together) can also occur.[1]

Microscopic

Features:

  • Breast - Invasive Papillary Carcinoma - Low power (SKB)

  • Breast - Invasive Papillary Carcinoma - Medium power (SKB)

  • Breast - Invasive Papillary Carcinoma - High power (SKB)

  • Breast - Invasive Papillary Carcinoma - High power (SKB)

  • Breast - Invasive Papillary Carcinoma - Solid Variant - Low power (SKB)

  • Breast - Invasive Papillary Carcinoma - Solid Variant - Medium power (SKB)

  • Breast - Invasive Papillary Carcinoma - Solid Variant - Medium power (SKB)

  • Breast - Invasive Papillary Carcinoma - Solid Variant - Area of compressed papillae - High power (SKB)

  • Breast - Invasive Papillary Carcinoma - Solid Variant - Area of less compressed papillae - High power (SKB)
