Adenomyoepithelioma. Higher magnification of a casedisplaying significant epithelial atypia is shown. There is cellulardisorganization with enlarged, crowded, and hyperchromatic nuclei.Cytologic interpretation of this tumor can be extremely difficult, andthe cytologic atypia may lead to a false-positive interpretation.(Smear, Diff-Quik.)
Hamartoma 83HamartomaHamartoma is a rare tumorlike growth of mature breast tissuelacking structural organization, originally described by Prynin 1928. Breast hamartoma is considered a dysgenetic ratherthan a neoplastic disorder. Association with other dysgeneticdisorders (such as Cowden syndrome) has been described.Clinical Features• Lesions are well-circumscribed, benign, and composed offat, glandular tissue, and fibrous connective tissue.• The majority occur in women who are premenopausal.• Two variants of hamartoma of the breast have beendescribed: (1) adenolipoma, which is composed of matureadipose tissue with varying amounts of normal breasttissue; and (2) chondrolipoma, which has mature adiposetissue admixed with hyaline cartilage.Cytomorphologic Characteristics• Moderate cellularity• Irregularly branching sheets of cohesive ductal epithelium• Intact lobular units• Lack of cytologic atypia and lack of cellular dispersal• Abundant naked bipolar nuclei, few stromal fragments,multinucleated histiocytes, rare apocrine cells• Adipose tissue fragmentsPitfalls and Differential Diagnosis• Normal breast tissue• Fibroadenoma• Fibrocystic changesSelected ReadingDawson AE, Mulford DK: Benign versus malignant papillary neoplasmsof the breast. diagnostic clues in fine needle aspirationcytology.
