====Subclassification==== | |||
*There are various way to subclassify this subtype of breast cancer. | |||
**There is a series of articles on the topic by ''Wargotz & Norris'' that is quite old... yet it is mentioned in Sterberg:<ref>{{Ref Sternberg5|328}}</ref> | |||
*#Matrix-producing carcinoma.<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Wargotz | first1 = ES. | last2 = Norris | first2 = HJ. | title = Metaplastic carcinomas of the breast. I.

*The WHO subclassifies as follows:<ref>{{Ref BP|214}}</ref> | |||
*#Epithelial - includes: squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma with spindle cell differentiation, adenosquamous carcinoma. | |||
*#Mixed epithelial and mesenchymal - includes: carcinosarcoma, carcinoma with metaplasia (chondroid, osseous). | |||
