Contents
Gross examination
Selection and trimming
- Determine total specimen size. Optionally, determine weight[1]
- Ink margins.Template:Ink note If sample orientations are marked, use different colors for different directions.[1]
- Palpate specimen for masses. Compare with radiograph if available[1]
- Make 3-4 mm thick slices.[1]
- Submit:[1]
- Entire specimen if it can fit in 3-5 slices.
- If larger, 1 slice per cm of tumor (minimum of 3 slices of tumor), including both center and periphery of tumor.
- Additional suspicious areas, including those indicated by mammography
See also: General notes on gross processing
Report
- Size of original tissue sample, preferably in 3 dimensions.
- Tumor properties, at least:
Microscopic evaluation
If tumor is found, determine:
- Tumor size
- Malignancy
- Distance from excision margin
Malignancy
The most important is to classify a sample as either of the following:
- Benign
- Carcinoma in situ
- Invasive cancer
Most common types
Finding | Relative incidence |
Histopathology | Image |
---|---|---|---|
Fibrocystic breast changes | 40% | ||
No disease | 30% | ||
Fibroadenoma | 7% | Biphasic proliferation of both stromal and epithelial components, arranged into either a pericanalicular pattern (stromal proliferation around epithelial structures), or an intracanalicular pattern (stromal proliferation compressing the epithelial structures into clefts). Fibroadenomas characteristically display hypovascular stroma compared to malignant tumors.[3][4][5] Furthermore, the epithelial proliferation appears in a single terminal ductal unit and has duct-like spaces surrounded by a fibroblastic stroma. The basement membrane is intact.[6] | |
Atypical ductal hyperplasia | 7%[7] | Epithelial proliferations which are not qualitatively or quantitatively abnormal enough to be classified as ductal carcinoma in situ.[7] | |
Other benign mammary dysplasias and neoplasms | 5% | ||
Breast cancer (in situ or invasive) | 10% | See next section. |
Breast cancer
