Abstract

There are varieties of breast cancers with special histologic features. This chapter focuses on a few of these entities that are not frequently encountered in daily practice. It is important to recognize these lesions as some of them are associated with favorable or adverse clinical outcomes as compared to invasive mammary carcinoma, NOS, which may affect the clinical management. Specifically, mucinous carcinoma, invasive micropapillary carcinoma, mucinous cystadenocarcinoma, mammary neuroendocrine neoplasm, cystic hypersecretory carcinoma, glycogen-rich clear-cell carcinoma, and carcinoma with osteoclast-like giant cells are discussed.
