High rate of PIK3CA mutations but no TP53 mutations in low-grade adenosquamous carcinoma of the breast

International audienceLow-grade adenosquamous carcinoma of the breast (LGASC) is a rare variant of metaplastic carcinoma characterised by a favourable outcome and histologically composed of glandular and squamous elements in a spindle cell background typically associated with a lymphocytic stromal reaction. Because of its rarity, the immunophenotypic and genetic profile of LGASC has not been sufficiently characterised. The aim of this study was to gain insights into the molecular and phenotypic characteristics of LGASC
