CHROMO Solid Papillary Carcinoma (SPC) • Sometimes the “intracystic” proliferation is so dense that the basic papillary or cribriform patterns is obscured (i.e., becomes solid). • Such tumors may be so-called solid papillary carcinomas (SPCs) (SPCs). • SPCs uncommon, circumscribed, large cellular nodules separated by bands of fibrosis. • Sometimes neuroendocrine differentiation • Often mucin secretion (focal to marked), may be extravasated mucin or mucinous carcinoma. • Can have other types of invasive carcinoma. Nassar et al. (AJSP 2006;30:501-7.) • 58 with SPC component (SPCs), mean f/u, 9.4 yrs. • Mean age 72 years, tumor sizes 0.3 to 15 cm. • Carcinomas divided into 3 groups: 1) SPC only (~33%), 2) SPC with extravasated mucin (~10%), 3) SPC with ith invasive i i components t (~60%) ( 60%) - neuroendocrine-like (~30%), - colloid (~25%), - ductal, not otherwise specified (~15%), - lobular (~3%), - tubular (~3%) - mixed (~25%). • All estrogen receptor positive and ~90% grade 1. • Axillary LNs positive in 13% (all had invasive tumor). 10/8/2011 42

Nassar et al. (AJSP 2006;30:501-7.) • Local recurrence in 5 pts, all with invasive carcinoma. • ~12% died of tumor in 1 to 4 yrs (mean, 2.3 yrs). • None died of noninvasive SPC. • 5 of 6 patients who DOD had invasive components. • Sixth pt died with “metastatic metastatic signet signet-ring ring cell carcinoma” carcinoma at 10 years had SPC with extravasated mucin, but the SPC lesion had signetring cells. • Conclusion: SPCs heterogeneous, arise in older pts, & have indolent behavior. LN & distant mets uncommon & limited to SPCs with (conventional) invasive components. Differential Diagnosis: 4. Intraductal papilloma. 5. Sclerosing papillary lesions or proliferations: scleroelastotic lesion simulating malignancy - scleroelastotic lesion simulating malignancy. - nonencapsulated sclerosing lesion. - indurative mastopathy. - complex sclerosing lesion. - invasive epitheliosis. - radial scar. - duct adenoma (? spectrum of sclerosing papillary lesions). 10/8/2011 43

CHROMO<br />

Solid Papillary <strong>Carcinoma</strong> (SPC)<br />

• Sometimes the “intracystic” proliferation is so<br />

dense that the basic papillary or cribriform<br />

patterns is obscured (i.e., becomes solid).<br />

• Such tumors may be so-called solid papillary<br />

carcinomas (SPCs) (SPCs).<br />

• SPCs uncommon, circumscribed, large cellular<br />

nodules separated by bands <strong>of</strong> fibrosis.<br />

• Sometimes neuroendocrine differentiation<br />

• Often mucin secretion (focal to marked), may be<br />

extravasated mucin or mucinous carcinoma.<br />

• Can have other types <strong>of</strong> invasive carcinoma.<br />

Nassar et al. (AJSP 2006;30:501-7.)<br />

• 58 with SPC component (SPCs), mean f/u, 9.4 yrs.<br />

• Mean age 72 years, tumor sizes 0.3 to 15 cm.<br />

• <strong>Carcinoma</strong>s divided into 3 groups:<br />

1) SPC only (~<strong>33</strong>%),<br />

2) SPC with extravasated mucin (~10%),<br />

3) SPC with ith invasive i i components t (~60%) ( 60%)<br />

- neuroendocrine-like (~30%),<br />

- colloid (~25%),<br />

- ductal, not otherwise specified (~15%),<br />

- lobular (~3%),<br />

- tubular (~3%)<br />

- mixed (~25%).<br />

• All estrogen receptor positive and ~90% grade 1.<br />

• Axillary LNs positive in 13% (all had invasive tumor).<br />
