Neuroendocrine breast carcinoma: The importance of the correlation between histological and radiological findings

Neuroendocrine breast carcinoma (NEBC) is an uncommon and malignant breast lesion. The absence of proper testing for this type of breast cancer carcinoma exacerbates this paucity. Additionally, only scant evidence of these tumors is present because of the repeated revisions in their diagnostic crite...

description Neuroendocrine breast carcinoma (NEBC) is an uncommon and malignant breast lesion. The absence of proper testing for this type of breast cancer carcinoma exacerbates this paucity. Additionally, only scant evidence of these tumors is present because of the repeated revisions in their diagnostic criteria throughout time. This case report highlights the importance of the correlation between histological and radiological findings in the diagnosis and treatment of neuroendocrine breast cancer. We describe the clinical, radiological, and histological characteristics of a patient diagnosed with neuroendocrine carcinoma. The breast parenchyma was penetrated by a carcinomatous tumor growth that contained trabeculae and lobules, exhibiting mild cytonuclear atypia, and having a low mitotic index. This report emphasizes the value of a multidisciplinary strategy for precise diagnosis and treatment planning.
