Outline
Intraductal proliferative lesions– Usual ductal hyperplasia (UDH)– Atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH)– Low grade DCIS– Flat epithelial atypia (FEA)– Clinical significance and management
recommendations
– Not discussing: lobular neoplasia, intermediate and high grade lesions.
Intraductal proliferative lesions
A group of cytologically and architecturally diverse proliferations originating in the TDLU.
Increased risk for subsequent breast ca – but of vastly different magnitudes.
‘risk indicators’ VS ‘precursors’ Different geneticsDifferent morphology: architecture, cytology,
extent.
Usual ductal hyperplasia
Also known as epithelial hyperplasia of usual type
Mild, moderate, florid – of no clinical significance*
Architecture: solid, fenestrated, micropapillary (tapered), peripheral slit-like lumens, attenuated bridges
Cytology: variable size and shape, overlapping, ill-defined cell borders, streaming of cells, necrosis is allowed. Occasional mitoses allowed. Compare to normal ducts for reference.
