Abstract
The pathological evaluation of radiological or sonographical abnormalities by needle core biopsy of the breast frequently involves the differential diagnosis of benign epithelial cell proliferations. The lesions to be considered include usual type and atypical ductal epithelial cell hyperplasia, columnar cell changes including flat epithelial cell atypia, the spectrum of hyperplastic and atypical apocrine epithelial cell proliferations and papillary lesions. This review provides an overview of the diagnostic criteria, the current terminology and the differential diagnosis of these lesions. The clinical management and the prognosis of the lesions are discussed.
