65/F came with c/o swelling in the left breast for 6months, on palpation - single nodule felt beneath the nipple and areola. Aspirated blood stained material from the swelling and reported as carcinoma left breast. Mastectomy was done and the specimen was sent for histopathological examination to department of pathology, SBMCH and reported as Ductal carcinoma insitu with microinvasion. DCIS accounts for 25% of all breast carcinomas while DCIS with microinvasion accounts 5% - 10% only. Most commonly occurs during 6th decade. Overall prognosis for microinvasive ductal carcinoma is very good.
