  1. Extends(surface anatomy) Above to 2nd rib Below to 6th rib Medially to lateral sternal line Laterally to mid axillary line. Axillary tail of Spence is a part of the gland extending into the axilla. Passes through a foramen of Langer in the deep fascia(axillary). In relation to pectoral(anterior) group of lymph nodes. Sometimes confused for a tumor. Medial 2/3rd on fascia over P.major Lateral 1/3rd over S.Anterior. Below over external oblique and its aponeurosis.
  2. The breast is bounded by the clavicle superiorly, the sternum medially, the lateral border of the latissimus muscle laterally, and the inframammary fold inferiorly. The axillary tail of Spence extends into the deep fascia superior and lateral to the breast. The deep pectoral fascia defines the deep margin. Fibrous bands, known as the suspensory ligaments of Cooper, divide the breast parenchyma into 12-20 separate lobules of glandular tissue. Separate branching lactiferous ducts drain each lobule. These ducts converge just beneath the nipple into sinuses that empty into a single terminal duct. Drainage from individual ducts can be localized for surgical excision. The lateral pectoral nerve passes medially around the medial pectoralis minor, and the medial pectoral nerve passes laterally around the pectoralis minor. The names are based on the origin of the nerves from the lateral and medial cords of the brachial plexus rather than their orientation to the muscle. Injuries to these nerves are rare. Injury to the brachial plexus can be avoided by keeping the superior extent of the axillary dissection inferior to the lower border of the axillary vein. The thoracodorsal nerve is identifiable medial to the thoracodorsal vein running along to enter the latissimus dorsi. Injury may result in slight, if any, clinically evident weakening of the latissimus. The long thoracic nerve is located more medially in the axilla. It runs just beneath the investing fascia of the serratus anterior, medial to the thoracodorsal complex. Injury to this nerve results in winging of the scapula on arm extension. The skin of the axilla and upper arm is supplied by the intercostobrachial nerve, which often is sacrificed in the dissection of axillary nodes. Transection may result in numbness in these areas.
  3. Branches of axillary artery— sup. Thoracic A; lateral thoracic A and thoraco acromial A Branches of internal thoracic A-perforating arteries of 2nd-4th intercostal spaces Anterior intercostal arteries Lateral branches of posterior intercostal arteries of 2nd-4th spaces. All these enter the anterior surface of the gland –so posterior surface is relatively avascular and is called “Lake of Marcelli”
  4. Venous drainage Run towards the base of the nipple to form circulus venosus End in the internal thoracic and axillary veins. Posterior intercostal veins may connect with the vertebral venous plexus.
  5. Surgical classification The surgical classification is used in axillary dissection for breast cancer. It is entirely based on the relationship of the lymph nodes to pectoralis minor. The levels usually refer to a dissection, so a 'level 3 dissection' will have removed nodes from levels 1, 2 and 3. Level 1 nodes Level 1 includes all those nodes inferior to the inferolateral border of pectoralis minor. It is usually comprised of the lateral, anterior and posterior nodes. Level 2 nodes Level 2 consists of those nodes posterior to pectoralis minor. It includes the central nodes and some of the apical nodes. Level 3 nodes Level 3 consists of those nodes beyond the superior border of pectoralis minor. It includes the remaining apical nodes and infraclavicular nodes. Sentinel node A sentinel node is the first node to drain from a particular area. In breast cancer, it refers to the first node to drain from that portion of the breast. This is usually an anterior node. Axillary lymph nodes receive most mammary lymphatic drainage. The internal mammary nodes also receive some drainage medially. Axillary nodes are referred to by levels, which are defined by the pectoralis minor muscle. Level I nodes are lateral, II behind, and III medial to the muscle.
  6. Surgical classification The surgical classification is used in axillary dissection for breast cancer. It is entirely based on the relationship of the lymph nodes to pectoralis minor. The levels usually refer to a dissection, so a 'level 3 dissection' will have removed nodes from levels 1, 2 and 3. Level 1 nodes Level 1 includes all those nodes inferior to the inferolateral border of pectoralis minor. It is usually comprised of the lateral, anterior and posterior nodes. Level 2 nodes Level 2 consists of those nodes posterior to pectoralis minor. It includes the central nodes and some of the apical nodes. Level 3 nodes Level 3 consists of those nodes beyond the superior border of pectoralis minor. It includes the remaining apical nodes and infraclavicular nodes. Sentinel node A sentinel node is the first node to drain from a particular area. In breast cancer, it refers to the first node to drain from that portion of the breast. This is usually an anterior node.
  7. A mature breast is composed of three principal tissue types: (1) glandular epithelium, (2) fibrous stroma and supporting structures, and (3) fat. Infiltrating cells, including lymphocytes and macrophages, are also found within the breast. In youth, the predominant tissues are epithelium and stroma, which may be replaced by fat in postmenopausal women as they age. However, there is great variability among individual women of any age. Mammography in women younger than 30 years, whose breast tissue is dense with stroma and epithelium, may produce an image without much definition. Fat absorbs relatively little radiation and provides a contrasting background that favors detection of small lesions in older patients. Throughout the fat of the breast, coursing from the overlying skin to the underlying deep fascia, strands of dense connective tissue called Cooper's ligaments provide shape to the breast. Because they are anchored into the skin, tethering of these ligaments by a small scirrhous (scarring) carcinoma commonly produces a dimple or subtle deformity on the otherwise smooth surface of the breast. The glandular apparatus of the breast is composed of a branching system of ducts, roughly organized in a radial pattern spreading outward and downward from the nipple-areolar complex (see Fig. 34-1 ). It is possible to cannulate individual ducts and visualize the lactiferous ducts with contrast agents. Figure 34-3 shows such an image and demonstrates the arborizing tree of branching ducts, which end in terminal lobules. The contrast dye opacifies only a single ductal system and does not enter adjacent and intertwined branches from functionally independent ductal trees. At the summit of the arborizing ductal system, the subareolar ducts widen to form the lactiferous sinuses, which then exit through 10 to 15 orifices on the nipple. These large ducts close to the nipple are lined with a low columnar or cuboidal epithelium that abruptly meets the squamous epithelium of the nipple surface and invades the duct for a short distance.

  9. Noncomedo DCIS: Cribriform DCIS with low grade nuclei the cells are forming round, regular (cookie cutter) spaces. The lumens are often filled with calcifying secretory material. Solid DCIS almost completely filled and distorted this lobule with only a few remaining luminal cells visible. This type of DCIS is not usually associated with calcifications.
  10. Noncomedo DCIS: A: Papillary DCIS; delicate fibrovascular cores extend into a duct and are lined by a monographic population of tall columnar cells. Myoepithelial cells are absent. B: Micropapillary DCIS; the papillae are connected to the duct wall by a narrow base and often have bulbous or complex outgrowths. The papillae are solid & do not have fibrovascular cores.
  11. Lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS): A monomorphic population of small, rounded, loosely cohesive cells fills and expands the acini of a lobule. The underlying lobular architecture can still be recognized. The cells never form a mass and calcification is uncommon. N.B.: The abnormal cells of ALH, LCIS, and invasive lobular CA are identical & consist of small cells that have oval or round nuclei with small nucleoli. Signet- ring cells containing mucin are commonly present. LCIS almost always express ER & PR while overexpression of HER2/neu is not observed.

  16. Genetic testing for BRCA1 and BRCA2 can be performed in selected patients with a strong family history of breast or ovarian carcinoma. However, genetic counseling and discussion of subsequent management and treatment options should be performed prior to testing. The criteria for referral for genetic counseling and testing of high-risk individuals include the following: Any patient diagnosed with breast cancer who is aged less than 40 years Males with breast cancer, especially if they are of Jewish ancestry Any patient with 2 or more first-degree relatives, or 2 or more second-degree relatives (on the same side of the family) who meet any of the following conditions: Breast cancer diagnosed at in patient aged less than 50 years Breast and ovarian cancer in the same bloodline or in the same individual Male relative diagnosed with breast cancer when aged less than 50 years Family members with bilateral breast cancer According to the American Society of Clinical Oncology, serum markers that may be used in the workup for breast cancer include carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cancer antigen (CA) 15-3, and CA 27.29. These are not recommended routinely, and indications for their use have not been standardized. However, once a diagnosis of breast cancer has been made, additional testing may be performed to determine a patient's likelihood of response to chemotherapy. Specifically, the Oncotype DX assay is a 21-gene assay first announced in 2003 by NSABP researchers.5 The Oncotype DX provides a score that predicts the likelihood of distant recurrence in a select group of patients who have node-negative and estrogen-receptor–positive breast cancer. Resulting scores may assist in determining the potential benefit or necessity of chemotherapy in these patients.

  20. Selected Targeted Anticancer Therapies Using Small Molecules Hormonal Therapy for Breast Cancer Arguably the first type of targeted therapy in oncology (Table 4) was the development of antiestrogen therapies for patients with breast cancer that expressed the estrogen receptor (ER) protein.[87] Originally developed as a competitive dextran-coated charcoal (DCC) radioligand binding assay performed on fresh tumor protein extracts and used to select patients for ablative endocrine surgery, the ER and progesterone receptor (PR) test format converted to an immunohistochemical platform when the decreased size of primary tumors associated with mass screening programs yielded insufficient tumor tissue for the DCC assay.[88] ER and PR testing has guided the use of the drug tamoxifen (Nolvadex), the most widely prescribed antiestrogen for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer and for chemoprevention of the disease in high-risk women.[89,90] Although ER and PR testing is the front line for predicting tamoxifen response, additional biomarkers have been used to further refine therapy selection.[91] The introduction of specific estrogen response modulators and aromatase inhibitors such as anastrozole (Arimidex), letrozole (Femara), and the combination chemotherapeutic, exemestane (Emcyt)[92-96] have added new strategies for evaluating tumors for hormonal therapy.

  22. Trastuzumab (Herceptin) During the mid 1980s, the discovery of the HER-2/neu (c-erb-B2) gene and protein and subsequent association with an adverse outcome in breast cancer provided clinicians with a new biomarker that could be used to guide adjuvant chemotherapy.[51] The development of trastuzumab (Herceptin), a humanized monoclonal antibody designed to treat advanced metastatic breast cancer in which first- and second-line chemotherapy had failed, caused rapid, wide adoption of HER-2/neu testing of the patients' primary tumors.[52] Since its launch in 1998, trastuzumab has become an important therapeutic option for patients with HER-2/neu-positive breast cancer.[53-56] Reports that fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) could outperform immunohistochemical analysis in predicting trastuzumab response[23] and the well-documented lower response rates of tumors staining immunohistochemically as intermediate (2+) vs intense (3+)[57] has resulted in a variety of approaches for patient testing (Figure 1), including immunohistochemical analysis as a primary screen with follow-up FISH testing of 1+ cases, 2+ cases, or both, or primary FISH-based testing. Trastuzumab has achieved notable results in the treatment of HER-2/neu-positive advanced metastatic disease and is under extensive evaluation in major clinical trials for its potential efficacy when used in earlier stages of breast cancer. Figure 1. HER-2/neu testing in breast cancer. A, Immunohistochemical analysis using the HercepTest system (DAKO, Carpinteria, CA) with continuous membranous 3+ positive immunostaining for HER-2/neu protein (×400). B, HER-2/neu gene amplification detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization (PathVysion, Vysis, Downers Grove, IL). Note individual signals and clusters of red signals indicating the presence of numerous additional copies of the HER-2/neu gene against the 1 or 2 green chromosome 17 centromere signals (×1,000). (Image courtesy of Kenneth J. Bloom, MD.) Bevacizumab (Avastin) Bevacizumab (rhuMAb-VEGF) is a humanized murine monoclonal antibody targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). VEGF regulates vascular proliferation and permeability and functions as a survival factor for newly formed blood vessels.[65-67] In clinical trials for advanced metastatic breast cancer, the initial results of the combination treatment of bevacizumab and paclitaxel showed antitumor activity,[68] but the results of follow-up studies were not convincing that the targeting of VEGF in this clinical setting would be effective. Bevacizumab also has been combined with trastuzumab in a 2-antibody therapeutic strategy for HER-2/neu-overexpressing breast cancer.[69] The phase 2 study evaluating bevacizumab in metastatic renal cell carcinoma reached its prespecified efficacy endpoint earlier than expected. Although late-stage clinical trials using bevacizumab with 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, and CPT-11 in third-line treatment for advanced colorectal cancer did not achieve all of the major endpoints,[70] when bevacizumab was used in first-line combination with 5-fluoruracil, a 5.5 month improvement in overall survival was observed.[71-73] These data led to the FDA approval of bevacizumab for the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer in February 2004. Unlike cetuximab, the development of bevacizumab has not included a diagnostic eligibility test. To date, neither direct measurement of VEGF expression nor assessment of tumor microvessel density has been incorporated into the clinical trials or linked to the rates of response to this antibody.

  24. The main disadvantages of existing serum markers for breast cancer are a lack of sensitivity for low-volume disease and a lack of specificity. Consequently, the available markers are of no value in either screening or diagnosing early breast cancer. Although of little use for early diagnosis, however, CA 15-3 may be the first independent circulating prognostic marker described for breast cancer. Preoperative CA 15-3 concentrations may thus be combined with established prognostic factors for use in deciding which lymph node-negative breast cancer patients should receive adjuvant chemotherapy. Currently, one of the most widely used applications of tumor markers in breast cancer is in the follow-up of patients with diagnosed disease. In the absence of data from a large randomized trial, however, the clinical value of this practice is unclear. Finally, markers are potentially useful in monitoring therapy in advanced disease, particularly in patients who cannot be assessed by standard modalities.
  25. Mammography has become the standard tool for screening and initial evaluation of breast cancer. Multiple prospective randomized controlled trials
