Study of correlation between Robinson’s cytological grading and NBR histological grading of Breast carcinoma

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 11

Abstract

Breast carcinoma is one of the most common cancers in women among the world. Early accurate diagnosis plays key role in treating patients. Cytological diagnosis and grading helps clinician to select appropriate treatment modalities for the patient. Our aim is to study the cytological grading on FNAC smears of breast carcinoma using Robinson’s grading and to compare the performance with Elston & Ellis modification of Scarff Bloom- Richardson histological grading and to know the concordance between these two grading systems. Out of 50 cases, both cytologically and histologically concordant cases in grade I are 7 cases (70%),grade II are 21 cases(81%) and grade III are 14 (100%) cases. Over all concordant cases are 42 (84%). Percentage of concordance between Robinson’s cytological grading with NBR grading is good for grade III and II tumors. Hence inclusion of Robinson’s cytological grading in all FNAC reports of breast cancer is very useful to oncologist in avoiding over treatment of low grade tumors.
