RESUMO

Intracystic papillary carcinoma of the breast associated with areas of infiltration is rare in that it constitutes less than 1% of breast cancers. After initial radiological study, these tumors show lesions with little likelihood of malignancy in a high proportion of cases. Two cases of intracystic papillary carcinoma associated with infiltration were diagnosed at the Breast Unit of Hospital Infanta Cristina. In both cases, the reason for consultation arose after palpation of a nodule and the initial radiographic analyses showed lesions with little likelihood of malignancy.

El carcinoma papilar intraquístico de mama asociado a áreas de infiltración, es una entidad infrecuente, que constituye menos de un 1% de los cánceres de mama. Se trata un tumor cuyo estudio radiológico inicial muestra lesiones con baja sospecha de malignidad en una proporción elevada de casos. Presentamos dos casos de carcinoma papilar intraquístico, asociados a infiltración diagnosticados en la Unidad de Mama del Hospital Universitario Infanta Cristina. En ambos casos el motivo de consulta fue la palpación de un nódulo y la aproximación radiológica inicial mostró lesiones con baja sospecha de malignidad.
