LWW.com mebooksfree.com DEDICATION In memory of Lowell W. Rogers and J. Allan Tucker, gentle giants who inspired others. mebooksfree.com PREFACE Histopathology remains the cornerstone of the diagnosis and treatment of breast disease. There have been advances in breast imaging techniques, molecular analysis, and immunotherapy of breast cancer, yet the fundamental decisions regarding the need for additional surgery, chemoprevention, radiation, and/or chemotherapy are based on morphologic features. Histopathology is far from a static or “out of date” discipline. Indeed, specific histologic criteria have been defined that allow for reproducibility in diagnosis; linking these criteria to outcome data for thousands of women through long-term follow-up studies has defined the epidemiology of benign breast disease and helps identify women who may benefit from chemoprevention strategies. These studies also provide concrete evidence that merely undergoing a breast biopsy does not increase risk for later cancer development, a welcome relief for thousands of women. The widespread use of core needle biopsy has had a major impact on the practice of breast pathology, and many of the images shown in this book are from core needle biopsy specimens. Our approach to the diagnosis of core biopsy specimens is similar to a frozen section, that is, what should the next step be, specifically, should the lesion be formally excised? We are grateful for the opportunity to have learned breast pathology from Dr. David Page, whose adherence to reproducible criteria and interpretation within the clinical context guide us daily. We also are grateful to pathologists who have trusted us with their difficult cases in consultation. The vast majority of such cases come with a differential diagnosis of one or two entities, underscoring the importance of a textbook that compares and contrasts differential diagnostic partners.
