A variant of ductal carcinoma of the human breast which has been designated apocrine carcinoma has distinctive light and electron microscopic features. Such tumors comprise approximately 0.5% of breast carcinomas. Abundant cytoplasmic membrane bound vesicles (400-600 nm) with dense homogeneous osmophilic cores characterize these tumors. These granules are also seen in apocrine metaplastic breast epithelial lesions1 and appear to be responsible for the finely granular eosinophilic cytoplasm observed by light microscopy. A high content of intermediate affinity non-saturable 4S progesteroneestrogen binding protein (PEBP) in apocrine carcinoma has been reported.2 The present ultrastructural study evaluates the presence of apocrine granules in infiltrating ductal carcinoma (NOS) to determine if a correlation exists between apocrine granule content and the quantity of PEBP present.
