- Abstract
The article focuses on a case of a 43-year-old patient with adenoid cystic cancer of the breast. The woman has a palpable breast nodule with 20 mm, without palpable axillary adenopathy. Fine needle aspiration smears showed abundant exfoliation of cohesive groups of small cells, stromal cells and fat with no evidence of malignancy. Some cells showed cyst-like tubular structures containing eosinophilic secretion materials.
