AB As  our  understanding  of  the  biology  of  breast  cancer  evolves,  we  recognize  that  there  are  many  different  types  of  histologically  distinct  cancers.  Breast  cancer  is  ahead  of  many  other  solid  organ  malignancies  in  our  understanding  about  different  tumor  biologies.  We  routinely  differentiate  breast  cancers  based  on  histology  between  invasive  ductal  carcinoma  and  invasive  lobular  carcinoma.  We  also  divide  breast  cancers  into  approximated  subtypes  based  on  their  hormone  receptor  status  (estrogen  and  progesterone)  as  well  as  HER-2/neu  status.
