Breast Pathology-Pitfalls

-Displaced epithelium can go to lymphatics (rare)
-Index lesion is an intraductal papilloma

Intraductal papilloma (IDP) without atypia-Management

- Varies depending on imaging or clinical presentation
- Asymptomatic IDP can undergo active imaging surveillance
- Symptomatic IDP-surgical excision can be considered in this situation

Low grade metaplastic carcinoma
Beaware🛑✋
They have a tendency to arise in association with sclerosing adenosis or intraductal papilloma

Non-invasive lobular neoplasia in intraductal papilloma (IDP)

- Usualmente atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH), rarely classic LCIS
- Florid or pleomorphic LCIS: Vary rare
- Do not report as atypical IDP- The term "atypical papilloma" is reserved for intraductal papilloma (IDP) with atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH), and ADH in IDP is the preferred terminology.

Adenomyoepithelioma in core needle biopsy mandates surgical excision regardless of atypia

Close morphologic similarity to intraductal papilloma

[Janira Navarro @Janiranavarro]

Encapsulated Papillary Carcinoma (EPC) almost 100% infacted after core needle biopsy could be misdiagnosed as infarcted intraductal papilloma

Lesson: Always evaluate infarcted areas and any residual viable cells

[Janira Navarro @Janiranavarro]

Usual ductal hyperplasia (UDH)-Uncommon patterns

- Reactive squamous metaplasia
- Necrosis when within an intraductal papilloma. If your are outside of intraductal papilloma and you are considering a diagnosis of UDH with necrosis, be careful, reevaluate histology and remember differential diagnosis like intermediate grade DCIS

[Janira Navarro @Janiranavarro]

Breast-biopsy site
If the index lesion is benign (this case is an intraductal papilloma) be very wary of calling the displaced epithelium as invasive carcinoma

The displaced epithelium should be confined within the fibrosis/biopsy site reaction

Perfect cut showing follicular infundibular cyst (aka epidermal inclusion cyst) w punctum (opening to skin surface). Lining resembles epidermis. Cyst filled w loose flaky Keratin. Many surgeons still incorrectly call these “sebaceous cysts”. #dermpath #Pathology #dermatology

[Jerad Gardner, MD @JMGardnerMD]

Nevoid melanoma. Elongated nests parallel to surface is a clue. Look for atypia & mitoses at higher power. #Pathology #dermpath #dermatology
