Invasive lobular breast carcinoma
MONDO:0005051An infiltrating lobular adenocarcinoma of the breast. The malignant cells lack cohesion and are arranged individually or in a linear manner (Indian files), or as narrow trabeculae within the stroma. The malignant cells are usually smaller than those of ductal carcinoma, are less pleomorphic, and have fewer mitotic figures.
Also known as: lobular carcinoma, lobular carcinoma (morphologic abnormality), lobular carcinoma NOS (morphologic abnormality), lobular carcinoma of the breast, classic invasive lobular carcinoma, infiltrating lobular adenocarcinoma, infiltrating lobular breast carcinoma, infiltrating lobular carcinoma of breast

New study aims to spot hidden cancer spread in lobular breast cancer
Knowledge-focused Not yet recruitingThis study will test whether whole-body MRI scans and blood tests for tumor DNA can better detect cancer progression in a type of breast cancer that is often missed by standard scans. Researchers will follow 43 people with metastatic invasive lobular carcinoma for up to 30 months…
