چکیده

Acinic cell carcinoma is a rare breast tumour belonging to salivary gland-like tumours of the breast. They are "triple-negative" breast cancers even if their biological behaviour seems to be more favourable. Herein we present an acinic cell carcinoma arising on a background of typical and atypical microglandular adenosis in a 58-year-old woman, along with a review of the literature.

Mammary Carcinoma Arising in Microglandular Adenosis: A Report of Five Cases

Mammary carcinoma arising in microglandular adenosis (MGA) is extremely rare, and MGA is regarded as a non-obligate precursor of triple-negative breast cancer. We report five cases of carcinoma arising in MGA of the breast. All cases showed a spectrum of proliferative lesions ranging from MGA to atypical MGA, ductal carcinoma in situ or invasive carcinoma. Immunohistochemically, all cases were ...

Carcinoma arising in microglandular adenosis of the breast: triple negative phenotype with variable morphology.

Carcinoma arising in microglandular adenosis (MGACA) is an extremely rare subtype of breast carcinoma. In this study, clinicopathological analysis of MGACA from 11 Chinese patients was conducted. Microscopically, all cases showed a spectrum of structure and glandular proliferations ranging from microglandular adenosis (MGA) to atypical MGA (AMGA) to MGACA. Carcinoma components were composed of ...

Invasive Breast Carcinoma Arising in Microglandular Adenosis: Two Case Reports

Microglandular adenosis (MGA) is a rare benign disease that shows an infiltrative growth pattern of small glands, and it may progress to include atypia and carcinoma. Here we report two cases of breast carcinoma arising in MGA. Case 1 was a 44-year-old woman with a previous history of ductal carcinoma in situ in her right breast. During a follow-up, a 1.8 cm mass-like lesion was found in her le...

Radiologic Findings of Microglandular Adenosis of the Breast mimicking Breast Carcinoma: Report of a Case

Microglandular adenosis (MA) of the breast is an extremely rare, benign lesion. Histologically, small round glands lacking a myoepithelial layer infiltrates normal stroma which makes it difficult to distinguish from welldifferentiated breast cancer. Breast carcinoma arising in MA has been reported up to 27%, so although it is known as a benign lesion without local spread or metastasis, complete...

Metaplastic Carcinoma with Chondroid Differentiation Arising in Microglandular Adenosis

Microglandular adenosis (MGA) of the breast is a rare, benign proliferative lesion but with a significant rate of associated carcinoma. Herein, we report an unusual case of metaplastic carcinoma with chondroid differentiation associated with typical MGA. Histologically, MGA showed a direct transition to metaplastic carcinoma without an intervening atypical MGA or ductal carcinoma in situ compon...
