Sclerosing Lymphocytic
LobulitClinical: Young – middle age, mass or
nodularity, pain, may be bilateral.
 Insulin dependent diabetes, Hashimoto’s
thyroiditis, HLA-DR 4 or 5
Micro: circumscribed, perivascular and
perilobular lymphocytic infiltrate, lobular
atrophy, stromal fibrosis, epitheliod
fibroblasts (SMA +, CK -) myofibroblastic
origin.is
Granulomatous Mastitis
Systemic granulomatous disease
 Infections (mycobacterial and fungal)
 Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis –
palpable mass, often tender, lobulocentric,
associated with recent pregnancy.
3-4 cell thickness – mild hyperplasia – no
increase risk of carcinoma
 Greater than 4 cell thickness – florid or moderate
hyperplasia – Slight risk of cancer (1.5 to 2 X)
Ductal hyperplasia (- atypia)
 Architectural Patterns
a. Irregular peripheral
fenestrations
b. Streaming of epithelial
cells
c. Overlapping nuclei
 Cytologic features
a. Multiple cell types
b. Variation in epithelial
cells (metaplastic
changes)
c. Indistinct cytoplasmic
borders
d. Nuclear irregularity
e. Foamy macrophages in
lumen
The Osler Institute
The Osler
Family History
 5-10% are hereditary
 BRCA1 and BRCA2
 Li-Fraumeni syndromemutation
of P53 gene
(17p13.1)
 Cowden’s syndrome –
PTEN gene on 10q23.3
 ATM gene 11q22-23
 Peutz-Jeghers –
STK11/LKB1 gene on
(19p13.3)
tubular carcinoma has excellant prognosis
colloid carcinoma has excellant prognosis
medullary carcinoma
Associated with BRCA1 gene.
IHC: ER & Her2 -; P53 +
Prognosis: more favorable than ductal
cancer.
Adenoid cystic carcinoma
Gross: well circumscribed
Micro: similar to adenoid cystic of salivary
gland, biphasic nature of cells comprising
the cell nests, central basaloid cells and
peripheral larger epithelial cells
 IHC: basaloid cells CK14 +, epithelial cells
CK7 +
P63, SMA: +, SMMHC & calponin: -
Prognosis: excellent.
Metaplastic Carcinoma
 Prominent non epithelial component, spindle
cells, squamous cells and heterologous
elements.
 More aggressive than invasive ductal Ca
 Metastasis is hematogenous
 Sarcomatous component may resemble
fibromatosis, fibrosarcoma, MFH and other
sarcomas.
 Look for epithelial components.
 IHC: HMWCK and P63 +
