Spindled, Infectious, and Unusual Findings in the Breast: A Case-Based Review
This lecture will cover a broad spectrum of interesting breast pathology including both benign and malignant entities from ten real cases encountered at the University of Utah Department of Pathology and ARUP Laboratories. The focus is loosely on spindled lesions of the breast, infectious lesions of the breast, and other cases with interesting or surprising results resulting from pathologic examination. Topics covered include cystic neutrophilic granulomatous mastitis, pseudo angiomatous stromal hyperplasia, mammary myofibroblastoma, and demodex folliculitis, among others. The goal is a broad overview of lesions that a general pathologist may encounter in day-to-day practice with suggestions about work-up, comments, or clinical significance discussed.
