Breast cancer pathological staging

The breast cancer pathology staging report is of great significance for the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. However, the series of letters on the breast cancer pathology staging report confuses most patients and their relatives. So, what are the pathological grades and stages of breast cancer?

1. Classification of breast cancer grades:

The relationship between the histological grade classification of tumors and patient prognosis has long attracted great attention from oncologists. The degree of differentiation of breast cancer is closely related to prognosis, but the various grade classification standards vary greatly. The histological grade classification of breast cancer is mainly evaluated from the following three aspects.

1. The level of glandular production. 2. Polymorphism of cytoplasm. 3. Counting nuclear divisions.

Classification standard of common malignant tumor treatment in my country

1. Glandular production: 1 point if most of the glands are prominent. The blood has mild to moderate split glands and is scored as 2 points. If the supplementary somatic cells grow and develop in solid pieces or cords, the score is 3.

2. Irregular cytoplasm size, shape and chromatin. Consistent cytoplasm size, shape and chromatin are worth 1 point. Mild to moderate irregularity of blood cytoplasm is scored as 2 points. A score of 3 was assigned for marked cytoplasmic pleomorphism.

3. Increased chromatin and nuclear division phase (periodontal 400) blood pressure 1/10HPF is 1 point. 2 to 3/10 HPF in blood is 2 points. Supplementation>3/10HPF is 3 points.

The scores specified by the three indicator values ​​of each standard are added together, with 3 to 5 points as level I (good splitting), 6 to 7 points as level II (medium-level splitting), and 8 to 9 points as level III (poor splitting).

2. Installment payment for breast cancer:

Stage 0: No lymph nodes are palpable in the axillary region in the same direction, and the tumor diameter is less than 2 cm

Stage I: Active lymph nodes are palpated in the axilla in the same direction, with or without migration, and the tumor is 2 to 5 cm in diameter

Stage II: The axillary lymph nodes in the same direction are combined into a mass and adhere to other tissues. The tumor diameter exceeds 5 cm.

Stage III: There is migration to the upper and lower neck or axillary lymph nodes or upper limb edema in the same direction. Migratory lymph nodes are combined and hard

Stage IV: Migration to other distant locations

Warm reminder: All diseases are caused by bad habits, so ladies should be kinder to themselves, work hard to correct incorrect habits, and prevent breast cancer starting today.
