Objective: Lobular intra-epithelial neoplasia (LIN) is a rare breast disease that has been regarded alternately as a risk factor for invasive breast cancer in both breasts or a true breast cancer precursor. The controversy is largely dependent on the estimation of the IBC (Invasive Breast Cancer) risk after LIN; however a systematic review of the published data has not been previously performed. We aimed to review the IBC after LIN and the characteristics of those cancers.

Objective: To review main knowledge about lobular intra-epithelial neoplasia with special interest for daily practice management.

Main Results: Intra-epithelial lobular neoplasias (ILN) are non invasive proliferations within the terminal ducto-lobular unit of monomorphic loosely cohesive small cells. A lack of expression of the E-cadherin adhesion molecule is often observed as in invasive lobular breast cancer.

We aimed to evaluate whether the use of a speculum blade modifies the evaluation of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) as assessed by dynamic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Twenty-seven women with POP Quantification (POPQ) stage II or greater, scheduled for POP surgery, were evaluated using MRI. The procedure was repeated using the posterior blade of a standard plastic Grave's speculum to successively retract the anterior and posterior vaginal walls.
