Apocrine hidrocystoma with mucinous metaplasia.
Hidrocystoma is a rare cystic lesion arising from the sweat glands, and is classified into apocrine and eccrine variants, with the majority being of apocrine nature [1]. It is usually found in the head and neck region, and commonly affects the periorbital area [1, 2]. Apocrine hidrocystoma is characterized histopathologically by the presence of a unilocular or multilocular cyst situated in the ...
متن کاملMixed apocrine/endocrine ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast coexistent with lobular carcinoma in situ.
An unusual mixed form of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the breast is described, which exhibits a biphenotypic morphology encompassing a range of differential diagnostic DCIS subtypes. In addition, immunophenotypic and ultrastructural studies demonstrate neuroendocrine and apocrine differentiation, raising questions regarding appropriate classification and biological behaviour. In two cases...
متن کاملApocrine metaplasia: a new type of müllerian metaplasia.
Apocrine differentiation was an incidental finding in an ovarian cyst. This is considered to be a further example of Müllerian metaplasia that has not been described before and which, theoretically, could occur in any organ of Müllerian derivation (ovary, uterus, cervix or fallopian tube). It is suggested that sites of such metaplasia could in turn be the origin of primary apocrine carcinoma in...
متن کاملApocrine Metaplasia in Intraductal Papilloma with Foci of DCIS: A Friend or Foe?
Malignant papillary neoplasms of the breast comprise a number of microscopically distinct lesions, where apocrine metaplasia is commonly found in papillomas compared to other papillary lesions including papillary carcinomas. However, association of apocrine metaplasia in papilloma with Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS) is not very well defined. The lesions with apocrine metaplasia are not only di...
متن کاملAxillary apocrine carcinoma associated with apocrine adenoma and apocrine gland hyperplasia.
Apocrine carcinomas represent a rare group of tumors with a potential for destructive local invasion, regional and distant metastases, and are equally common in both sexes. A case of a 79-year-old woman with axillary apocrine carcinoma associated with apocrine adenoma and apocrine gland hyperplasia is presented. To our knowledge, this is the first case diagnosed in a Caucasian and also the firs...
