Lobular carcinoma in situ or
atypical lobular hyperplasia at core-needle biopsy: is excisional biopsy necessary?
In contrast, breast cancer risk in women with
atypical lobular hyperplasia remained steady over time.
That worked out to an adjusted odds ratio for developing breast cancer of 2.76 for women with atypical ductal hyperplasia, 5.24 for those with
atypical lobular hyperplasia, and 8.12 for women with both histologic abnormalities, she continued.
An MMP-9-positive / ADAM 12-negative urine sample conferred a 40% chance that the patient had LCIS and a 25% chance that she had atypical ductal hyperplasia or
atypical lobular hyperplasia.
An MMP-9-positive/ADAM12-negative urine sample conferred a 40% chance that the patient had LCIS and a 25% chance that she had atypical ductal hyperplasia or
atypical lobular hyperplasia. And a sample that proved negative for both biomarkers was associated with a zero probability of atypical hyperplasia.
Atypical lobular hyperplasia was diagnosed when acini in a lobular unit had less than 50% involvement by a monotonous population of epithelial cells showing classic lobular characteristics, including discohesive cells with small, round nuclei, often containing perinuclear vacuoles.
The term lobular neoplasia has been applied to the spectrum of lesions comprising
atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH) and LCIS.

The atypia category included ADH, apocrine atypia,
atypical lobular hyperplasia, and classic lobular carcinoma in situ.
(23) Lobular carcinoma in situ and/ or
atypical lobular hyperplasia is associated with tubular carcinoma in approximately half of cases.
