Abstract

Invasive cribriform carcinoma is a rare type of invasive breast carcinoma with an excellent prognosis and is characterized by a cribriform histological pattern. However, there is scant information about the radiologic features of invasive cribriform carcinoma of the breast. We report a case of invasive cribriform carcinoma of the breast with radiologic features including MR imaging findings.

침윤성사상형유방암은 매우 드물게 발생하는 원발성 유방암으로, 조직학적으로 사상형 구조를 보이고, 좋은 예후를 갖는 특징이 있다. 하지만, 영상소견에 대해서는 보고가 드물다. 이에 저자들은 침윤성사상형유방암의 자기공명 영상소견을 포함한 영상소견에 대해 보고하고자 한다.
