Background: Papillary lesions of the breast are a heterogeneous group of breast lesions that are difficult to diagnose as benign or malignant. These lesions have varied morphologic features that carry differing prognostic implications for affected patients. Accurate diagnosis is required to ensure that effective treatment is achieved. Papillary lesions can have increased risk of carcinoma and recurrence, in these patients even for lesions yielding a benign concordant diagnosis of papilloma at percutaneous biopsy, surgical excision may be warranted. Malignant lesions are usually surgically treated. Depending on stage-adjuvant chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy is given.Methods: A retrospective study was conducted at Shaukat Khanum Memorial hospital and Research Centre Lahore Pakistan. We reviewed the electronic records of diagnostic and registered patients from January 2007 till December 2017 in women imaging section, in age range of 25 to 75 years. Total 150 diagnosed patients with benign or malignant breast papillary lesions were selected and their conventional breast imaging (mammography and ultrasound) and histopathology was retrospectively analyzed on SPSS.Results: Patients were predominantly asymptomatic or on follow-up to an abnormal mammogram. Of the 150 cases most of the patients had intra-ductal papilloma followed by invasive papillary carcinoma and intra cystic papillary carcinoma. Few patients had intra-ductal papillomatosis and invasive micro papillary carcinoma.Conclusions: Conventional breast imaging remains the first main stay and quite sensitive in detecting breast papillary lesions leading to early detection and management.

Abstract Background Due to the high variability of incidence and prevalence of intra-mammary lymph nodes (IMLNs), they might be overlooked during clinical and radiological examinations. Properly characterizing pathological IMLNs and detecting the factors that might influence their prevalence in different stages of breast cancer might aid in proper therapeutic decision-making and could be of possible prognostic value. Methods Medical records were reviewed for all breast cancer patients treated at the National Cancer Institute of Cairo University between 2013 and 2019. Radiological, pathological, and surgical data were studied. Results Intra-mammary lymph nodes were described in the final pathology reports of 100 patients. Five cases had benign breast lesion. Three cases had phyllodes tumors and two cases had ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). All ten cases were excluded. The remaining 90 cases all had invasive breast cancer and were divided into two groups: one group for patients with malignant IMLNs (48) and another for patients with benign IMLNs (42). Pathological features of the malignant IMLN group included larger mean tumor size in pathology (4.7 cm), larger mean size of the IMLN in pathology (1.7 cm), higher incidence of lympho-vascular invasion (65.9%), and higher rate of extracapsular extension in axillary lymph nodes (57.4%). In addition, the pathological N stage was significantly higher in the malignant IMLN group. Conclusion Clinicians frequently overlook intra-mammary lymph nodes. More effort should be performed to detect them during preoperative imaging and during pathological processing of specimens. A suspicious IMLN should undergo a percutaneous biopsy. Malignant IMLNs are associated with advanced pathological features and should be removed during surgery.
