Atypical ductal hyperplasia, abbreviated ADH, a benign breast lesion associated with an increased risk of malignancy.

General

  • Molecular studies have shown it is the same thing as low-grade DCIS; thus, some have called for abolition of the term.[1]
  • ADH is considered an indication for a lumpectomy.[2]
    • Two large studies suggest the conversion of an ADH on core biopsy to breast cancer on surgical excision, known as "up-grading", is approximately 30%.[3][4]

Epidemiology:

  • Relative risk of breast cancer, based on a median follow-up of 8 years, in a case control study of US registered nurses, is 3.7.[5]

Microscopic

Features:

  • Cytologic and architectural feature of low-grade DCIS.
    • Cell spacing ~ equal.
    • Lumina round.
    • Architecture - classically cribriform or solid; may be micropapillary or papillary.
    • Small nuclei.
      • Small indistinct nucleoli.
  • Limited extent (diagnostic size cutoffs) - either:[6]
    1. < Two complete ducts.
    2. < 2 mm. ‡

DDx:

Notes:

  • High-grade DCIS is not in the DDx of ADH.
  • ‡ 3 mm is used in papillary lesions.[citation needed]

Images

  • ADH. Very low mag. (WC/Nephron)

  • ADH - high mag. (WC/Nephron)

IHC

  • CK5 <20% +ve.
  • ER +ve - diffusely.
