Invasive cribriform carcinoma of the breast is a rare type of breast cancer with a favourable prognosis.[1]
General
- Rare ~ 0.6% of breast cancer in one series.[2]
- Low grade.
- Good prognosis if pure or associated with a tubular invasive component.[3]
Microscopic
Features:[4]
- Cribriform (or sieve-like) architecture.
- Desmoplastic stroma.
- +/-Tubular component.
Notes:
- Cribriform component should be >90% of the tumour.[4]
- Low or intermediate Nottingham grade.
DDx:
- Cribriform DCIS.
- Tubular carcinoma of the breast.
- Invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast with cribriform component.
- Adenoid cystic carcinoma of the breast.

IHC
Features:[1]
- ER +ve (9 +ve of 9 cases).
- PR +ve (9 +ve of 9 cases).
- HER2 -ve (0 +ve of 9 cases).
