炎性乳腺癌

定义

一种晚期的浸润性乳腺癌，其特征是上覆皮肤出现明显的变化。这些变化包括弥漫性红斑、水肿、橘皮样变化、压痛、硬结、发热、肿大，在某些情况下可触及肿块。这些皮肤变化是由潜在的浸润性乳腺癌引起的淋巴阻塞造成的。显微镜下，真皮淋巴管可见明显的恶性细胞浸润。侵袭性乳腺癌通常是导管型、NOS型。尽管这种癌的名称，但没有明显的炎症细胞浸润存在。

An advanced, invasive breast adenocarcinoma characterised by the presence of distinct changes in the overlying skin. These changes include diffuse erythema, edema, peau d'orange (skin of an orange) appearance, tenderness, induration, warmth, enlargement, and in some cases a palpable mass. The skin changes are the consequence of lymphatic obstruction from the underlying invasive breast adenocarcinoma. Microscopically, the dermal lymphatics show prominent infiltration by malignant cells. The invasive breast adenocarcinoma is usually of ductal, NOS type. There is not significant inflammatory cell infiltrate present, despite the name of this carcinoma.
