Alışılmamış bir meme kanseri olgusu: Glikojenden zengin şeffaf hücreli invazivduktal karsinom

Glikojenden zengin şeffaf hücreli karsinom, memede oldukça seyrek rastlanan, intrasitoplazmik glikojenin yoğun olarak gözlendiği şeffaf hücrelerden oluşan, değişik morfolojik ve patolojik karakter sergileyen bir tümördür. Memenin glikojenden zengin şeffaf hücreli karsinomlarının klinik seyri ve prognozları konusunda veriler net değildir. Klasik invaziv duktal karsinomlara göre daha agresif seyretme eğiliminde olduğu ve prognozunun daha kötü olduğu düşünülmektedir. Bu yazıda nadir görülen bir şeffaf hücreli meme karsinomu olgusu sunulmaktadır.

An unusual breast carcinoma case; Glycogen rich invasive ductal carcinoma

Glycogen rich clear cell carcinoma is a rare subtype of breast carcinomas, that is composed of heavily intracytoplasmic glycogen rich clear cells. It has different morphological and pathological pattern. Datas regarding the clinical course and prognosis of glycogen rich clear cell carcinomas of breast, are still inconclusive. When compared with classical invasive ductal carcinomas, it is thought to be more aggressive and having a worse prognosis. In this paper, a case of glycogen rich clear cell carcinoma of breast is presented.
