Caption

The mammary parenchyma is entirely replaced by a neoplasm composed of closely-packed acini and glands supported by a small amount of fibrovascular stroma.
NOTE: Most mammary tumors in C3H mice have an acinar pattern. Most mammary tumors in C3H mice are the result of infection by the Mouse Mammary Tumor Virus.
