Abstract

Various studies have shown that the breast is the site of a wide range of pathological changes. So, a diverse range of malignant, benign, and non-neoplastic diseases can impact the breast. Therefore, research has been pointing out since ages that an examination of both Western and Indian literature reveals mainly breast masses, i.e., BC. Therefore, our study aimed to analyze and evaluate the CHP pattern of BBL in SES. After conducting a thorough analysis of the medical records of 273 patients, we found that the excisional/lumpectomy procedure was the most common, accounting for 153 out of 273 cases. The remaining cases consisted of 20 core needle biopsies and 100 mastectomies. In addition, the tissue fragments were subsequently treated using the standard paraffin embedding method. Thin sections measuring 4-5 microns in thickness were carefully prepared and stained using the H&E stain method. In addition, ZN (20%) staining and PAS staining were also performed as needed. In our study, we found that of the BBL, the maximum number of cases (77.14%; 118/153 cases) were BN, followed by IL (7.85%; 12/153 cases) and BPL (7.18%; 11/153 cases). NPL were 6.53%, and miscellaneous cases were 1.3%. As a result, we have determined that CHP is the diagnostic standard of excellence.
