Atypical ductal hyperplasia | |
---|---|
Diagnosis in short | |
Atypical ductal hyperplasia. H&E stain. (WC/Nephron) | |
| |
LM | cytologic and architectural features of low-grade DCIS (equal cell spacing, lumina round, variable architecture (classically cribriform or solid - may be micropapillary or papillary), small nuclei, small indistinct nucleoli); limited extent - either (1) two or less complete ducts, (2) <2 mm in size |
LM DDx | ductal carcinoma in situ, invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast |
Site | breast - see non-invasive breast carcinoma |
| |
Symptoms | none |
Prevalence | relatively common |
Radiology | suspicious calcifications |
Prognosis | benign, increased risk of malignancy |
Treatment | lumpectomy when found on biopsy, follow-up if on extensional specimen |
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]
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 features 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]
- < Two complete ducts.
- < 2 mm. ‡
DDx:
- Low-grade ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS).
- Florid epithelial hyperplasia of the usual type (FEHUT).
Notes:
- High-grade DCIS is not in the DDx of ADH.
- ‡ 3 mm is used in papillary lesions.[citation needed]
Images
IHC
- CK5 <20% +ve.
- ER +ve - diffusely.
- Heterogenous in FEHUT.
