understanding of breast cancer progression. In the past few years, new multi‐step pathways …

Metastatic disease is the primary cause of death in breast cancer, the most common
malignancy in Western women. Loss of E-cadherin is associated with tumor metastasis, as …

Simple Summary Invasive lobular breast cancer (ILC) is a special type of breast cancer (BC)
that was first described in 1941. The diagnosis of ILC is made by microscopy of tumor …

Background: National incidence rates for lobular and ductal breast cancers have not been
available previously. Evidence suggests that the increased risk of breast cancer associated …

BACKGROUND: No consensus exists on the need to excise breast lesions that yield classic
lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) or atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH)(known together as …
