Usual ductal hyperplasia

Usual ductal hyperplasia is typically a cohesive proliferation with haphazard, jumbled cell arrangement or streaming growth pattern. Cells have mild variation in cellular and nuclear size and shape.[1]

Differential diagnosis

edit
In contrast to usual ductal hyperplasia (UDH), atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH) displays:[1]

  • Increased amounts of pale eosinophilic to amphophilic cytoplasm with conspicuous cell borders
  • Atypical architectural patterns, including cribriform spaces, Roman arches, trabecular bars and micropapillae

If uncertain, immunohistochemistry can be performed:[1]

Usual ductal hyperplasia (UDH) Atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH)
High molecular weight keratins Mosaic to occasionally diffuse Negative
Estrogen receptor Heterogenous staining Diffusely positive
