infiltrating lobular carcinoma | definition: invasive breast cancer arising in the lobules of the breast (small end ducts that branch off the lobes in the breast) which is made up of small cells in a linear arrangement with a tendency to grow around ducts and lobules. It is often an area of ill-defined thickening in the breast, in contrast to the lump characteristic of ductal carcinoma. It commonly spreads to the axilary lymph nodes and then, to the meninges and surfaces with serum. It usually has a poor prognosis. It is relatively uncommon, accounting for only 5%-10% of breast tumors.

carcinoma lobulillar infiltrante | term type: main entry term definition: carcinoma de mama invasivo que se origina en los lobulillos de la glándula mamaria (pequeños conductos en los que se dividen los lóbulos de la mama), caracterizado por el crecimiento celular lineal alrededor de los conductos y lóbulos de la mama. A diferencia del carcinoma ductal de mama, que presenta bultos, el carcinoma lobulillar infiltrante suele formar un crecimiento mal delimitado de la mama. Suele extenderse con rapidez a los ganglios linfáticos de la axila, y posteriormente, a las meninges y las superficies serosas, por lo que normalmente tiene un mal pronóstico. Es relativamente poco frecuente, representando entre el 5 y el 10% de todos los tipos de cáncer de mama.
