Learn how a diagnosis of atypical lobular hyperplasia or atypical ductal hyperplasia affects your risk of breast cancer and what you can do.
In atypical hyperplasia (or hyperplasia with atypia), the cells look more distorted and abnormal. This can be either atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) or atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH). Hyperplasia doesn’t usually cause a lump that can be felt, but it can sometimes cause changes that can be seen on a mammogram.
Atypical lobular hyperplasia is a high-risk, precancerous lesion that can evolve into ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). DCIS is a condition that affects the epithelial cells that line the walls of a breast lobule.
Atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH), like ADH, is another high-risk breast lesion that has been associated with a four-fold to a five-fold increased lifetime risk of developing breast cancer in either the ipsilateral or contralateral breast.
Learn how a diagnosis of atypical lobular hyperplasia or atypical ductal hyperplasia affects your risk of breast cancer and what you can do.
Atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH) is a clonal proliferation of discohesive epithelial cells arising in terminal duct lobular units
In this report, we describe the histologic and molecular features of atypical hyperplasia, the current management of the condition, new data on the cumulative risk of breast cancer among women...
Atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH) ALH is an abnormal growth of cells within lobules of the breast that is linked with an increased risk of breast cancer. If ALH is found by a needle biopsy, it isn’t always clear what the best thing to do is. Some doctors might advise removing more of the area around the biopsy site to make sure that there ...
There are 2 main types of atypical hyperplasia. They are atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) and atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH). In ADH, new cells look like the cells that grow in your breast ducts. ADH isn’t cancer, but it may raise your risk of getting breast cancer in the future.
Atypical lobular hyperplasia (ALH) is defined as an epithelial proliferation that does not meet the qualitative or quantitative abnormalities to be classified as ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). ALH is part of the high-risk lesions, subclassified among the lobular neoplasia.
