| Popis: | Seventeen patients with papillary carcinoma of the breast were analysed with respect to the radiological findings by three experienced breast radiologists. The most frequent mammographic appearance of papillary tumours was of an ill-defined (70%) and lobulated (60%) mass and at ultrasound as a well-defined (76%), inhomogeneous (62%) and hypoechoic (92%) lesion. Histopathological subtypes of encysted papillary carcinoma, encysted papillary carcinoma with an invasive focus and invasive papillary carcinomas could not be predicted from the radiological features, although invasive tumours tended to be larger at presentation than the other subtypes. |
