dc.description.abstractInvasive micropapillary carcinoma of the breast is an uncommon variant of infiltrating ductal carcinoma. Observing its distinctive cytologic appearance and aggressive behavior is important for early diagnosis by fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). There are only a few reported cases in the literature. Five women presented with breast masses. FNAC showed malignant epithelial tumors, and mastectomy materials showed invasive micropapillary carcinoma for all of them. Three patients had axillary lymph node metastases. Invasive micropapillary carcinoma, with its angulated papillary clusters lacking a fibrovascular core, and irregular crowded nuclei, has a distinctive cytologic appearance which correlates with its histological features. A differential diagnosis from other primary or metastatic papillary lesions of the breast may be possible using immunohistochemistry and some cytologic features. The limited experience with invasive micropapillary carcinoma should not discourage others from undetaking further studies. (C) 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc.en_US
