Caption

Solid/comedo mammary carcinoma: as exemplified in this photomicrograph, in a few areas, neoplastic cells formed 1-2 cells thick cords and were separated by a moderate amount of dense fibrovascular stroma. In these areas, a few neoplastic cells had a spindloid morphology and their nucleus was oval to slightly elongated (arrowhead).
