Although the differential diagnosis includes
intraductal papilloma, especially when complicated by superimposed neoplastic proliferations, (136) such lesions are usually confined to one duct and its branches, rather than the multiductal distribution of papillary DCIS.
The densely cellular neoplastic cells often appear to be streaming, and thus may be mistaken for
intraductal papilloma with florid ductal hyperplasia.
Histologic examination made the diagnosis of
intraductal papilloma with focal atypia (Figure 3).
Wei discusses the histologic, immunohistochemical, and prognostic features of papillary lesions, including the
intraductal papilloma, papilloma harboring atypical ductal hyperplasia and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), intraductal papillary carcinoma (papillary DCIS), encapsulated papillary carcinoma, solid papillary carcinoma, and invasive papillary carcinoma.
Benign
intraductal papilloma is a solitary lesion of the duct that typically presents when small and nonpalpable because of the occurrence of spontaneous nipple discharge.
In the assessment of atypical papillary lesions (ADH/DCIS involving benign
intraductal papilloma or papillary DCIS), immunohistochemical evaluation of the expression of HMWCK is a valuable adjunct, in which benign papillary lesions exhibit strong, mosaic reactivity throughout the lesion in 88% to 100% of cases, and atypical papillary lesions are nonreactive, indicating a clonal proliferation of luminal epithelial cells in 80% to 100% of cases.
The spectrum of these lesions ranges from
intraductal papilloma and papilloma with ADH or DCIS to papillary DCIS, encapsulated and solid papillary carcinoma, and invasive papillary carcinoma.
