Article Synopsis
- Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is the second most common type of breast cancer, constituting 10%-15% of cases in Western populations, but there is limited data from India.
- A study analyzed 97 ILC patients from 2009 to 2016, revealing a median age of 53, with most patients diagnosed at stages II and III, and a high positivity rate for estrogen and progesterone receptors.
- Findings showed a 3-year relapse-free survival rate of 80% and overall survival rate of 60%, with younger age (<45 years) and advanced tumor stage linked to poorer outcomes.
