Metaplastic Carcinoma of Breast with Chondrosarcomatous DifferentiationA Rare Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 7
Abstract
Metaplastic carcinomas of breast are rare neoplasms. They are highly heterogenous groups of tumors that are characterised by an admixture of adenocarcinoma with dominant areas of spindle cell, squamous, and/or mesenchymal differentiation[1,2]. Other than a lower rate of lymph node metastases, MBC (metaplastic breast carcinoma) display poorer prognostic features relative to IDC. Due to its relative rarity and heterogenous histologic presentation, the pathologic diagnosis of MBC is difficult. We report a case of metaplastic breast carcinoma in whom fine needle aspiration cytology was performed with later histological confirmation.
