Papilloma and papillary carcinomaFrederick Koerner
Pathology Service, Massachusetts General Hospital, James Homer Wright Laboratory of Pathology, Boston, Massachusetts 02114, USA
Semin Diagn Pathol 27:13-30. 2010..This phenomenon complicates the recognition of invasion by many papillary carcinomas and has given rise to controversy about the nature of the lesion classically known as "intracystic papillary carcinoma."..
Epithelial proliferations of ductal typeFrederick C Koerner
James Homer Wright Pathology Laboratories, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, 55 Fruit St, Boston, MA 02114, USA
Semin Diagn Pathol 21:10-7. 2004..Current evidence does not support the belief that conventional ductal hyperplasia represents an obligate precursor to ductal carcinoma in situ...
Ovarian hormone receptors in human mammary stromal cellsF Koerner
James Homer Wright Laboratory of Pathology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Department of Pathology, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02114, USA
J Steroid Biochem Mol Biol 78:285-90. 2001..The findings also illustrate similarities in the organization of the rodent and human breasts and thereby suggest that regulation of the gland by ovarian hormones involves similar mechanisms in both species...
Morphological observations regarding the origins of atypical cystic lobules (low-grade clinging carcinoma of flat type)F C Koerner
Department of Pathology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston 02114, USA
Virchows Arch 439:523-30. 2001..Considering these observations, we ascribe the formation of atypical cystic lobules to the accumulation of atypical cells in pre-existing terminal duct-lobular units...
A brief historical perspective on the pathology of the breast: from Cheatle to Azzopardi and beyondFrederick C Koerner
James Homer Wright Pathology Laboratories, Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School, 55 Fruit St, Boston, MA 02114, USA
Semin Diagn Pathol 21:3-9. 2004..With ever more sophistication and increasingly powerful techniques, this trend continues to this day...
Collagenous spherulosis: an ultrastructural studyH M Maluf
Department of Pathology, University of Tennessee, Memphis, USA
Ultrastruct Pathol 22:239-48. 1998..The authors propose that spherules represent a peculiar form of stromal invagination that could be seen in a variety of breast lesions, rather than a form of intraductal hyperplasia...
Atypical cystic lobules in patients with lobular neoplasiaE Brogi
Department of Pathology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA, USA
Int J Surg Pathol 9:201-6. 2001..The presence of ACLs in patients with LN might explain its increased risk for the development of ductal carcinomas and their bilateral distribution. Int J Surg Pathol 9(3):201-206, 2001..
pS2 expression and response to hormonal therapy in patients with advanced breast cancerL H Schwartz
Department of Radiation Therapy, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston 02114
Cancer Res 51:624-8. 1991..The odds of having a clinical response to hormonal therapy was greater for pS2-positive than for ER- or PgR-positive tumors. pS2 expression may define a subset of ER-positive tumors that are more likely to respond to hormonal treatment...
Solid papillary carcinoma of breast: an ultrastructural studyG R Dickersin
Department of Pathology, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston 02114, USA
Ultrastruct Pathol 21:153-61. 1997....
Development and validation of a model predictive of occult nipple involvement in women undergoing mastectomyJ E Rusby
Division of Surgical Oncology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts 02114, USA
Br J Surg 95:1356-61. 2008..This prospective study aimed to build a predictive model using preoperative information to aid selection for nipple-sparing mastectomy...
Mammographic appearance of ductal carcinoma in situ does not reliably predict histologic subtypeP J Slanetz
Department of Radiology, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts 02215, USA
Breast J 7:417-21. 2001..A histologic grade of DCIS cannot accurately be determined prospectively based on the mammographic appearance of microcalcifications. However, if only a mass is present, this is more likely to represent well-differentiated DCIS...
Noninvasive papillary proliferationsTetsunari Oyama
Department of Tumor Pathology, Gunma University Graduate School of Medicine, Showa-machi, Maebashi, Japan
Semin Diagn Pathol 21:32-41. 2004..Micropapillary ductal carcinoma in situ exhibits extreme dilatation of ducts and lobules, micropapillae varying in size and shape, lack of maturation, dishesion and necrosis, and cytological atypicality...
Solid papillary ductal carcinoma in situ versus usual ductal hyperplasia in the breast: a potentially difficult distinction resolved by cytokeratin 5/6Joseph T Rabban
Department of Pathology, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
Hum Pathol 37:787-93. 2006..Pathologists must guard against misinterpreting SP-DCIS as UDH in those cases in which the carcinoma cells engulf cytokeratin 5/6-expressing residual, native epithelial cells...
