Pancreatic metastasis from invasive pleomorphic lobular carcinoma of the breast: a rare case report
BACKGROUND Invasive pleomorphic lobular carcinoma (PLC) is an aggressive subtype of invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast, which has its own histopathological and biological features. The metastatic patterns for PLC are distinct from those of invasive ductal carcinoma. In addition, pancreatic metastasis from PLC is extremely rare. CASE PRESENTATION We report a rare case of a 48-year-old wo...
متن کاملPleomorphic Lobular Carcinoma in a Male Breast: A Rare Occurrence
Carcinoma of male breast is uncommon as it accounts for 0.7% of total breast cancer. The pathology of male breast cancer is remarkably similar to that of cancers seen in women. The same histological subtypes of invasive cancer are present, although papillary carcinomas (both invasive and in situ) are more common and lobular carcinomas are less common. The predominant histological type, in males...
متن کاملInvasive Pleomorphic Lobular Carcinoma of the Breast: Clinicopathologic Characteristics and Prognosis Compared with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma
PURPOSE Invasive pleomorphic lobular carcinoma (IPLC) is a very rare and distinct morphological variant of invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC), characterized by nuclear atypia and pleomorphism contrasted with the cytologic uniformity of ILC. This study evaluated clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis of IPLC compared with invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). METHODS We retrospectively revie...
متن کاملBilateral male breast cancer: a case presenting with synchronous invasive lobular carcinoma and invasive ductal carcinoma
Synchronous bilateral male breast cancer is a very rare entity and invasive lobular carcinoma is less common in male breast cancer (MBC) than in female breast cancer (FBC). A 51-year-old man presented with a palpable mass in the left breast was finally diagnosed synchronous bilateral MBC, one an invasive lobular carcinoma and the other an invasive ductal carcinoma. It remains a matter of debate...
متن کاملMicrocalcification of Tumor is a Predictor of Response to Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Invasive Breast Carcinoma
BACKGROUND In recent years, neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is often performed for patients with unresectable breast carcinoma or without indication of breast conserving therapy. However, it is currently difficult to predict response to NAC with diagnostic imaging of breast carcinoma. In this study, we investigated imaging findings that could serve as a predictor of the response to NAC for patie...
