Mucinous features????

Cal786

Hi all,

Can anyone elaborate on a pathology report? Most specifically, what does it mean to have a cancer with mucinous features???

IDC with mucinous features, grade 1.

I should state this is the pathology from the biopsy, but I'm confused as to what mucinous features means???

Thank you 😔

Hi Cal,

We're sure there will be some members here shortly to share their experience with this type of cancer. In the meantime, you may want to check out the main Breastcancer.org site's pages on IDC Type: Mucinous Carcinoma.

There's also some great info on interpreting the other pieces of your pathology report in the Your Diagnosis section.

We hope this helps!
