Background Fibroepithelial lesions (FELs): • Most common breast abnormality in adolescent females (< 18 years-old) • Referred to as: • Fetal fibroadenoma • Cellular fibroadenoma • Juvenile fibroadenoma • Giant fibroadenoma • Fibroadenoma variant • Tubular adenoma • Hamartoma • Cystosarcoma phyllodes • Phyllodes tumor
Study Aims • Investigate the morphology and clinical behaviorof FELs in adolescents • Standardize the diagnostic terms used for FELs in adolescents based upon histologic criteria
Study Design (1) • Search of MSKCC pathology database • Age < 18 years-old • Excision or mastectomy between 1992-2011 • Diagnosis of any fibroepithelial lesion • 7 FELs from a prior series were also included (1975-1983) Barrio AV et al. Ann Surg Oncol 2007
Study Design (2) • 3 pathologists reviewed all available slides • Features noted: • Gross & microscopic size • Borders / margin status • Growth pattern • Stromal overgrowth • Stromal cellularity • Nuclear pleomorphism • Epithelial hyperplasia • Stromal cell mitoses • Smooth muscle actin-α (1A4, DAKO) staining performed on available tissue
Study Design (3) • Patient information and clinical follow-up obtained from e-medical records • Age at presentation • Age at menarche • Race • Laterality • Family history

Juvenile Fibroadenoma • A distinctive type of FA • Collagenized and cellular stroma • Pericanalicular growth pattern • Lobular arrangement • +/- Florid ductal hyperplasia
Juvenile Fibroadenoma: Variation in Morphology
Fibroadenoma Variant • Characterized by collagenous and cellular stroma • “…related to FAs in structure and composition but show sufficient difference to raise problems in precise dx and classification” • Differential dx often includes a phyllodes tumor Azzopardi, 1979
