“…An excisional biopsy is required to assess the entirety of the material. [7,8] Because intracavitary papillary carcinomas are rare, the treatment consensus is not clear. Carter et al [3] noted that in patients treated with local excision in 1983, and with 7 intracystic papillary carcinomas without recurrence for 7 years, mastectomy patients were treated with additional treatment.…”

“…Nowadays, segmental mastectomy is done with negative surgical margin in the treatment of intracystic papillary carcinoma in past history. [1,7] In the recent studies, it was observed that there was no difference between the patients who underwent the segmental mastectomy and those who underwent the mastectomy and the recurrence and cancer-related deaths. Very rarely, axillary microinvasion, lymph node metastases, is encountered.…”

SUMMARYIntracystic papillary carcinoma of the breast is a rarely seen tumor. It is often classified as a variant of in situ ductal carcinoma. Intracystic papillary carcinoma is slow growing and usually surrounded and limited by fibrosis capsule. Presently described is case of a 51-year-old postmenopausal patient. She felt a tumor in her left breast, and after examination, it was diagnosed as intracystic papillary carcinoma. Following adjuvant chemotherapy breast excision, and axillar dissection, patient was given curative external radiotherapy and hormonal treatment. As result of 40-month follow-up, the patient was evaluated as having local recurrence and no distant metastases. Follow-up and treatment protocols should be observed on case-by-case basis.

“…Intracystic papillary carcinoma (IPC) is an extremely rare tumor that constitutes 0.5-2% of all breast cancers (1). Although rare, this type of breast cancer is known to have very good prognosis (2).…”

“…In general, the treatment includes breast conserving surgery with wide local excision or mastectomy, followed by sentinel lymph node biopsy in its invasive forms and axillary lymph node dissection according to the pathological result, followed by adjuvant therapy. In terms of adjuvant therapy, if ER/PR is positive and HER 2 is negative, the choice of treatment is tamoxifen (1,6,13). Although the focus is on tamoxifen as choice of endocrine therapy, there is no conclusive evidence for the indication of endocrine treatment (9).…”

Intracystic Carcinoma of the Breast: Report of Two Cases

et al. 2015

Intracystic papillary carcinoma of the breast (IPC) is usually seen in postmenopausal elderly women. Its prognosis is much better than other type of breast tumors, and usually do not contain invasive components. Surgical excision with negative margins and axillary sentinel lymph node sampling is the recommended treatment. Two cases of intracystic papillary carcinoma of the breast that was treated at our clinic are herein presented. Both cases were postmenopausal, were both positive for estrogen and progesterone receptors and negative for HER 2. They underwent breast-conserving surgery. One patient had an invasive focus, therefore axillary lymph node sampling was performed, and the sentinel lymph node was not metastatic. This patient received hormonal therapy as well as radiotherapy. In the other case, there was no invasive focus and the surgical margins were negative, therefore, additional surgery was not performed. The patient is receiving hormonal therapy. Intracystic carcinoma of the breast should be kept in mind especially in elderly patients with breast cysts, with clinically or radiologically suspicious features, and biopsy and local excision should be considered. Although there is not any standard approach for patients with IPC, each patient must be evaluated for surgery and should be individually assessed in terms of adjuvant therapy

Encapsulated papillary carcinoma of the breast (EPC) is a rare type of papillary neoplasm. It accounts for 0.5-1% of all breast cancers. 1 Described as a well-circumscribed malignant papillary mass surrounded by thick fibrous capsule, EPCs typically presents in postmenopausal woman (between 55 to 67 years of age). 2,3 It is generally considered as a low risk cancer, with a 5% local recurrence risk and an overall favourable prognosis. 4 Although it is debatable if EPCs should be treated as an in-situ or invasive carcinoma, 4 EPCs are often managed as an in-situ disease because of its indolent clinical behaviour. EPCs uniquely express a pattern of invasion-associated markers between DCIS and invasive breast cancer (IBC). On one hand, EPC is notoriously difficult to diagnose pre-operatively with
