Breast cancer is a common solid malignancy in women. Over the past decade, much progress has been made in understanding the biology of breast cancer. The use of molecular and immunohistochemical techniques is providing insights that will allow us to tailor the management of patients with breast cancer. In this review, progress in the understanding of lobular carcinoma in situ and atypical ductal hyperplasia, the use of the molecular marker CerbB2, and information gained from the morphological analysis of tumours arising in patients with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations is discussed.
乳腺癌是女性常见的实体恶性肿瘤。在过去十年中,我们对乳腺癌生物学的理解取得了很大进展。分子和免疫组化技术的应用为我们提供了深刻见解,使我们能够针对乳腺癌患者制定个性化治疗方案。在这篇综述中,我们将讨论在原位小叶癌和非典型导管增生的认识方面取得的进展、分子标志物CerbB2的应用,以及从对携带BRCA1和BRCA2突变患者所患肿瘤的形态学分析中获得的信息。
