Clinical Discussion

Invasive tubular carcinoma is a well differentiated breast carcinoma associated with a favourable prognosis. It can also co-exist with flat epithelial atypia and/or lobular neoplasia ("Rosen's Triad"). Tubular carcinoma, FEA and lobular neoplasia all share similar molecular aberrations, for example loss of 16q.
