Description

Papillary carcinomas constitute 1–2% of breast carcinomas in women. Solid papillary carcinoma (SPC) is a rare variant of papillary carcinoma with unique pathological morphology and biological behavior and has recently been classified as a new category of breast papillary carcinoma by the World Health Organization (2012), differentiating it from the previous classification as a type of intraductal papillary carcinoma. This retrospective study included four pathology-confirmed in situ SPC patients. Conventional MRI, diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) were performed with a 1.5 T whole-body MR scanner before surgical operation. The following characteristics of each lesion were recorded: signal intensity on T2WI/STIR and T1FSPGR, morphology, maximum lesion size, and time intensity curve (TIC) on dynamic contrast enhancement MRI (DCE-MRI), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value from DWI, and Cho peak from MRS.
