2004 MAY 6 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Stromal infiltration may predict tumor invasion in breast fine-needle aspiration biopsy.

According to a study from the United States, "Clinical management of in situ carcinoma of the breast is different from invasive carcinomas. Thus, it is important to find cytomorphologic criteria to distinguish between these two entities."

"The current study is designed to assess whether, by applying strict cytologic criteria, the status of stromal invasion can be predicted. In this retrospective study, 223 consecutive nonpalpable tumors sampled by ultrasound-guided breast fine-needle aspirates with diagnosis of in situ and invasive carcinoma with histologic follow-up evaluation were retrieved," wrote J. Klijanienko and colleagues, University of Florida, Health Science Center.

"Ten cytologic parameters were evaluated, which included cellular clustering, eosinophilic differentiation, necrosis, tubular structures, dirty background, nuclear anisonucleosis, cellular pleomorphism, cribriform pattern, tubular structures, and stromal infiltration," the researchers wrote.

"Among all the parameters examined, stromal infiltration was the most powerful predictor of status of invasion. Stromal infiltration was significantly higher in invasive ...
