Popis: | AimsThe aim of this study was to analyse the clinicopathological features and prognosis of human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2)-positive metaplastic squamous cell carcinoma (MSCC).MethodsFifty-eight patients with MSCC of the breast who were classified into 45 triple-negative and 13 HER2-positive subgroups diagnosed at the West China Hospital, Sichuan University, from 2004 to 2018, were enrolled. Clinicopathological features were collected and compared between HER2-positive MSCC, triple-negative MSCC, HER2-positive invasive breast carcinoma of no special type (NST) and triple-negative NST groups. In the prognostic survival analysis, HER2-positive MSCCs was compared with triple-negative MSCCs, HER2-positive NSTs and triple-negative NSTs.ResultsCompared with triple-negative MSCCs, more patients with Ki-67 low expression were in HER2-positive MSCCs (pConclusionIn conclusion, our study indicates that HER2-positive MSCC is an aggressive disease with unique clinicopathological characteristics. Both HER2-positive status and an SCC component are critical factors for poor prognosis. HER2-positive MSCC and triple-negative MSCC are distinct subgroups. Corresponding targeted therapy recommendations should be made for this HER2-positive MSCC group. |
