Pathology Report

I received my pathology report and it states Invasive Ductal Carcinoma (90%) and Intraductal Carcinoma (10%) and the size was 2.7 CM (by reconstruction)/Nottingham Grade 2
Total Score = 6:  Tubule Formation 3, Nuclear Pleomorphism 2 and Mitoses 1.  Necrosis/Absent  Calcification/Present.  Definite Angiolymphatic Invasion not identified.
Pathological Staging:  T2 N0(I-) Mx

It was now sent out for Oncotest.  

Can anyone explain what all this means?

It means simply that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer which is one of the most common types. there was no indication that the lymph nodes are involved which is a good thing. Your Oncologist will discuss in detail this report and advise and recommend whatever treatment plan would best serve you when all testing has been completed. All this must be taken one step at a time.   Regards .....
