Uncommon Tumors and Uncommon Presentations of Cancer in the Breast.

[PURPOSE OF REVIEW] The purpose is to present a case series of rare diagnoses and unusual presentations of breast lesions with radiologic-pathologic correlation from a major cancer center, and to review the recent literature on each entity with a focus on radiology-pathology concordance. We present our findings and experience from cases of metastatic small cell lung carcinoma to the breast, IgG-4 related breast disease, breast implant associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma, granular cell tumor, pleomorphic sarcoma, adenomyoepithelioma, post-radiation angiosarcoma, and breast carcinoma after risk-reducing total mastectomy.

[RECENT FINDINGS] It is essential for physicians to have knowledge of rare breast diagnoses and unusual breast disease presentations to formulate a complete differential diagnosis, recognize radiological-pathological concordance of these entities and provide appropriate patient care.

[SUMMARY] Current literature on these rare described entities exists mainly as case reports, case series and small-scale studies. By sharing our findings, we hope to educate trainees in radiology, pathology and other fields across the continuum of care in radiologic-pathologic correlation, while also augmenting the existing literature on these rare entities.
