Aims and background Often neglected by large clinical trials, patients with uncommon breast malignancies have been rarely analyzed in large series. Patients and methods Of 2,052 patients diagnosed with breast cancer and followed in our Institution from January 1985 to December 2009, we retrospectively collected data on those with uncommon histotypes, with the aim of investigating their presentation characteristics and treatment outcome. Results Rare histotypes were identified in 146 patients (7.1% of our total breast cancer population), being classified as follows: tubular carcinoma in 75 (51.4%), mucinous carcinoma in 36 (24.7%), medullary carcinoma in 25 (17.1%) and papillary carcinoma in 10 patients (6.8%). Whereas age at diagnosis was not significantly different among the diverse diagnostic groups, patients with medullary and papillary subtypes had a higher rate of lymph node involvement, similar to that of invasive ductal carcinoma. Early stage diagnosis was frequent, except for medullary carcinoma. Overall, in comparison with our invasive ductal carcinoma patients, those with rare histotypes showed a significantly lower risk of recurrence, with a hazard ratio of 0.28 (95% CI, 0.12–0.62; P = 0.002). Conclusions According to our analysis, patients with uncommon breast malignancies are often diagnosed at an early stage, resulting in a good prognosis with standard treatment.

Background: Tubular carcinoma (TC) is a low proliferative grade 1 (G1) breast cancer (BC). Despite its favorable outcome and allegedly lower aggressiveness, patients are treated like other luminal G1 BC, with radiotherapy (RT) and hormonal therapy (HT). We performed: (1) a retrospective study comparing a TC cohort and a control series of luminal G1 BC and (2) a systematic review and meta-analysis focused on TC outcome.Materials and Methods: We selected a series of 572 G1 luminal BC patients [111 TC, 350 not otherwise specified (NOS), and 111 special-type (ST) BC] with follow-up and clinico-pathological data, who underwent local excision followed by RT at Città della Salute e della Scienza Hospital, Turin. Moreover, 22 and 13 studies were included in qualitative and quantitative meta-analysis, respectively.Results: TCs were generally smaller (≤10 mm) (P < 0.001), with lower lymph node involvement (P < 0.001). TCs showed no local and/or distant recurrences, while 16 NOS and 2 ST relapsed (P = 0.036). Kaplan–Meier curves confirmed more favorable TC outcome (DFI: log-rank test P = 0.03). Meta-analysis data, including the results of our study, showed that the pooled DFI rate was 96.4 and 91.8% at 5 and 10 years, respectively. Meta-regression analyses did not show a significant influence of RT nor HT on the DFI at 10 years.Conclusions: Compared to the other G1 BCs, TCs have an excellent outcome. The meta-analysis shows that TC recurrences are infrequent, and HT and RT have limited influence on prognosis. Hence, accurate diagnosis of TC subtype is critical to ensuring a tailored treatment approach.

Objective: Describing the clinical and subclinical characteristics on breast cancer patients treated with Anthracyclines at Thong Nhat hospital.Subjects and methods: a prospective descriptive study on 43 patients with breast cancer was treated with Anthracyclines with 4 to 6 cycles as determined by clinical doctor at Thong Nhat hospital. Results: Average age: 49.2 ± 3.2 years old. The age group accounted for the largest proportion in the study object was the 50-60 age group (48.84%). The percentage of patients who self-examined the tumor was the highest with 79.07%. There were 9.30% of patients with pain symptoms, 11.63% of patients with nipple discharge. Tumor position in the upper-external quadrant accounted for the largest percentage with 55.81%. The average size of tumors was 2.56 ± 1.2 (cm). The main form of lesions detected on ultrasound was the local lesion with over 80% with an unknown boundaryfeature (81.40%) and predominantly invasive (76.74%). The histopathological type accounted for the highest percentage was the invasive tubular carcinoma (79.07%), the medullary carcinoma andmucinous carcinoma body accounted for the lowest rate with 2.33% and 0%, respectively. The histological degree accounted for the highest percentage among the research subjects was degree 2with 50.18%. Stage III accounted for the highest rate with 46.51%.Conclusion: The most common age group for breast cancer was 50-60 years old, the main symptom was self-examination with breast tumors, breast cancer were mainly local tumor at the upper-externalposition. On ultrasound, the lesions were the local, unknown boundary, and invasive lesions. Breast cancer was mainly invasive ductal carcinoma, histologic degree 2.
