Abstract
This study aimed to describe the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of pure breast encapsulated papillary carcinoma (EPC). Ten patients with histopathologically confirmed breast pure EPC were reviewed. Two radiologists evaluated lesion MRI characteristics. The EPC presented oval or round mass with circumscribed margin on MRI. In addition, 4 cases exhibited a cystic-solid mixed mass with mural nodules, and 4 cases exhibited a liquid level that indicated the possibility of hemorrhage. A well-defined cystic-solid mixed mass with mural nodules, or a circumscribed mass exhibiting the possibility of hemorrhage, may suggest the diagnosis of EPC.
