Papillary lesions of the breast: a review
【Abstract】
Papillary breast lesions are rare breast tumors that comprise a broad spectrum of diseases. Pathologically they present as mass-like projections attached to the wall of the ducts, supported by fibrovascular stalks lined by epithelial cells. On mammogram they appear as masses that can be associated with microcalcifications. Ultrasound is the most used imaging modality. On ultrasound papillary lesions appear as homogeneous solid lesions or complex intracystic lesions. A nonparallel orientation, an echogenic halo or posterior acoustic enhancement associated with microcalcifications are highly suggestive of malignancy. MRI has proven to be useful to establish the extent of the lesion. Core needle biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosis. Surgical excision is usually recommended, although treatment for papillomas without atypia is still controversial.
