breast cancer - type of tumor
Subject: breast cancer - type of tumor

The lady who is doing well after her left partial mastectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy. All three sentinel lymph nodes were negative for malignancy. In the partial mastectomy, __scarsman__ II tumors were identified. The first was an invasive carcinoma, moderately differentiated, measuring 1.5 centimeters in maximum dimension associated with DCIS which was also of intermediate nuclear grade.


I have looked under types of tumor, and googled it under different terms and cannot come up with anything.  I'm probably not even close!


Thanks for your help!
