Abstract:
PURPOSE:C-erbB-2 oncogene expression is found in 60% of DCIS cases. C-erbB-2 expression in DCIS has been shown to correlate with comedo subtype, large cell size, lymphoid infiltrate, nuclear pleomorphism, multinucleation and high mitotic rate. These findings have led to the suggestion that the subgroup of DCIS that expresses c-erbB-2 may be a biologically definable category with prognostic significance. The purpose of this study was to identify any differences in the mammographic appearances between DCIS which expresses c-erbB-2 and DCIS that does not express this oncogene. MATERIALS AND METHODS:C-erbB-2 staining characteristics and preoperative mammograms were available for review in 126 patients with pure DCIS. All the mammograms were reviewed by a radiologist knowing the patient had DCIS but without any further pathological or immunohistochemical information. RESULTS:C-erbB-2 positive DCIS showed the following features more commonly than c-erbB-2 negative disease: calcification (65 of 71 (92%) vs 28 of 39 (72%), P < 0.01), ductal distribution of calcification (51 of 65 (78%) vs 16 of 28 (57%), P < 0.05), rod-shaped calcification (53 of 65 (82%) vs 15 of 28 (54%), P < 0.01) and granular calcification (63 of 65 (97%) vs 24 of 28 (86%), P < 0.05). C-erbB-2 negative DCIS more commonly showed an abnormal mammogram without calcification than c-erbB-2 positive disease (11 of 39 (28%) vs 6 of 71 (8%), P < 0.01). CONCLUSION:We have demonstrated significant differences in the mammographic features of c-erbB-2 positive and negative disease. As c-erbB-2 expression has been shown to correlate with aggressive histological features, the differences in the mammographic appearances between c-erbB-2 positive and c-erbB-2 negative DCIS may be of practical value.
