Abstract
Lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS) is an uncommon high-risk lesion of the breast, often diagnosed as an incidental microscopic finding in tissue removed for other mammographic finding, and is usually adjacent to, but not within the mammographically depicted lesions. Thus, there are no distinctive mammographic features of LCIS, according to most reports in the literature. We present a woman with multifocal LCIS involving an area of mammographically detected architectural distortion. The mammographic findings and the pathologic correlation are discussed.
