Intra-cystic (Encapsulated) Papillary Carcinoma of Breast: A Case Report & Review of Literature

1. Abstract
We are reporting a case of 62-year-old lady who presented with nipple discharge without palpable lesion and after radiographic and pathologic investigations, diagnosed as intracystic papillary carcinoma of breast. They account for less than 3% of all breast tumors and comprises a wide range of proliferative breast diseases. It is a difficult task to diagnose encapsulated papillary carcinoma. Most of the lesions present asymptomatically with or without palpable lesion or nipple discharge.
