ABSTRACT
The Uniform Approach to Breast Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy was put forward by a learned group of breast physicians in 1997. This landmark manuscript focused predominantly on diagnosis and reporting of mammary epithelial lesions. Today, most American practitioners turn initially to core biopsy rather than aspiration biopsy for the first line diagnosis of solid breast lesions; however, recent efforts from the International Academy of Cytology have produced a system called the Standardized Reporting of Breast Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy Cytology (colloquially labeled in 2017 as the "Yokohama System"), suggesting a new interest in breast fine needle aspiration (FNA), especially in resource limited settings or clinical practice settings with experienced breast cytopathologists. Fibroepithelial lesions of the breast comprise a heterogeneous group of biphasic tumors with epithelial and stromal elements. Mesenchymal lesions of the breast include a variety of neoplasms of fibroblastic, myofibroblastic, endothelial, neural, adipocytic, muscular, and osteo-cartilaginous derivations. The cytology of mesenchymal breast lesions is infrequently described in the literature and is mainly limited to case reports and small series. This illustrated review highlights the cytologic features of fibroepithelial and mesenchymal mammary proliferations and discusses differential diagnoses and histomorphologic correlates.
