Clinicopathological profile of breast cancer from Chhattisgarh India: A single-center hospital-based study
Abstract
Background: Global breast cancer incidence is increasing at an annual rate of 3·1%. Female breast cancer has surpassed lung cancer as the most commonly diagnosed cancer, with an estimated 2.3 million new cases (11.7%). However, the data from different parts of India are still lacking and the study was conducted to assess the burden of disease at tertiary referral centers in central India. Material and Methods: Retrospective record analysis (June 2013–June 2017) of data from outdoor clinics and pathology reports. The patients aged 5 cm (72.6%). Immunohistochemistry and pathological analysis was done on core biopsy (n = 20) and surgical procedure (n = 60). Modified radical mastectomy was done in 52, breast conservative surgery with Sentinal Lymph node biopsy and axillary lymph node dissection in 6, and toilet mastectomy in two patients. The predominant tumors were solid (n = 79/80), with both solid and cystic types (1/80). The solid and cystic lesion on FNAC was of C3b type, and an excision biopsy revealed medullary carcinoma of the breast. Invasive ductal carcinoma-no special type (IDC-NST) was observed to be the most common histopathologic type (n = 70/80), followed by medullary carcinoma (n = 2), metaplastic carcinoma (n = 1), papillary carcinoma (n = 4), Paget disease with DCIS (n = 1), mucinous carcinoma (n = 1), invasive lobular carcinoma (n = 1). One male patient with breast cancer and two female patient having bilateral breast cancer also have IDC-NST.Scarff Bloom Richardson Grade was predominantly graded 2 in 46.25% (37/80) of breast cancer patients (Grade 1 = 9, Grade 2 = 37, Grade 3 = 34). Lymphovascular (LVI) and perineural invasion (PNI) were predominantly without LVI and PVI. (Lymphovascular present and perineural invasion present = 4, Lymphovascular present and perineural invasion absent = 32, Lymphovascular absent and perineural invasion absent = 42, Lymphovascular absent and perineural invasion present = 2). Histological examination of axillary lymph nodes showed the presence of malignant cells in all. Triple-negative breast carcinoma was 26.58% (21/79). Most breast cancer presented at stage II A = 37.5% (30/80) and II B = 28.7% (23/80) of the AJCC staging system. Conclusion: The clinico-epidemio and histological profile of breast cancer in Chhattisgarh is similar to other parts of India. Scarff Bloom Richardson Grade was predominantly grade 2 in 46.25% (37/80) contrary to Grade III (70%) in other series from India.
