Right Partial Breast, Lumpectomy: |
- Fibroadenoma. |
</pre> |
====Micro==== |
The sections show a lesion with a pale mildly cellular stroma, and bland glandular elements. No apparent proliferative activity is present. The border is well-circumscribed where seen. Focally, the lesion approaches the inked margin; partial lesion transection cannot be excluded. |
No cytologic atypia is present. No leaf-like architecture is present. No stromal overgrowth is seen. No calcifications are evident. No large cysts are seen. |
===Complex=== |

Right Breast, Lumpectomy: |
- Complex fibroadenoma with apocrine metaplasia. |
- Negative for carcinoma in situ and negative for malignancy. |
</pre> |
====Micro==== |
The sections show a lesion with a pale mildly cellular stroma, and bland glandular elements. Minimal mitotic activity is present (2 mitosis/10 HPF, where 1 HPF ~ 0.2376 mm*mm). The border is well-circumscribed where seen. The lesion was shelled-out. |
No cytologic atypia is present. No leaf-like architecture is present. No stromal overgrowth is seen. No calcifications are evident. No large cysts are seen. |

Features: |
*Dilated glands - '''key change'''. |

'''Flat epithelial atypia''', abbreviated '''FEA''', is a benign breast lesion that is associated with an increased risk of subsequent [[breast cancer]]. |
==General== |
Epidemiology: |
*Associated with [[ADH]] & [[DCIS]]; may represent a non-obligate precursor lesion of ADH & DCIS.<ref name=pmid18384213>{{Cite journal | last1 = Lerwill | first1 = MF. | title = Flat epithelial atypia of the breast. | journal = Arch Pathol Lab Med | volume = 132 | issue = 4 | pages = 615-21 | month = Apr | year = 2008... |

Management: |

==Microscopic== |
Features: |
*"Flat" ~ three cells thick. |
*Hypercellular gland -- several layers. |
*Columnar cell morphology. |
*+/-Apical snouts. |

*Columnar cell hyperplasia. |

*Flat [[DCIS]] (clinging carcinoma). |
*Apocrine cyst - granular cytoplasm. |
*[[Tubular carcinoma]] - should be considered due to the association. |
