What is the survival rate for a 46 yr old pt with stage 2b invasive lobular breast cancer w/node involvement?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Better than 85%: Invasive lobular carcinoma begins in the milk-producing glands (lobules) of the breast the cells having broken out of the lobule where they began and in Stage IIB have spread to regional lymph nodes. It typically doesn't form a lump, but often causes a fullness in one part of the breast.. They tend to have more hormone-receptor–positive tumors , lower nuclear grade and survival better than 85%
