The differential for architectural distortion includes Invasive Ductal Carcinoma, often with a desmoplastic reaction, and Radial Scar, which mimics malignancy. Read More Here: thepathprincess.substack.com/p/architectura… 🔬 #pathology #pathologist #breastpath #pathtwitter #pathX

Case of Complex Sclerosing Papillary Lesion 🔬 Radial sclerosing lesions may show papillary areas—and when they do, the line between “radial scar” and “sclerosed papilloma” can get blurred. #PathX #PathTwitter #breastpath
