Glycogen-rich clear cell carcinoma (GRCC) of the breast is a rare malignant tumor. Most previous reports focused on clinicopathologic findings of GRCC and imaging findings were not precisely described. Here, we report imaging findings of three cases of GRCC along with a literature review. GRCC of the breast was depicted as a mass with irregular or oval shape on mammography and complex cystic and solid composition or focal cystic change on ultrasound. GRCC showed internal high signal intensity on T-weighted MRI with rim enhancement after contrast injection. These might suggest the possibility of GRCC in differentiating breast tumors.
乳腺富含糖原的透明细胞癌(GRCC)是一种罕见的恶性肿瘤。以往大多数报道都集中在 GRCC 的临床病理表现,而对其影像学表现并未进行准确描述。在此,我们报告三例 GRCC 的影像学表现并进行文献复习。乳腺 GRCC 在钼靶上表现为形态不规则或呈椭圆形的肿块,在超声上表现为复杂的囊实性成分或局灶性囊性改变。GRCC 在 T1 加权 MRI 上呈内部高信号强度,增强后呈边缘强化。这些表现可能提示在鉴别乳腺肿瘤时应考虑 GRCC 的可能性。
