Invasive Lobular Breast Carcinoma
An infiltrating lobular adenocarcinoma. The malignant cells lack cohesion and are arranged individually or in a linear manner (Indian files), or as narrow trabeculae within the stroma. The malignant cells are usually smaller than those of ductal carcinoma, are less pleomorphic, and have fewer mitotic figures. (NCI Thesaurus)
