In invasive cribriform carcinoma, the cancer cells invade the stroma (connective tissues of the breast) in nestlike formations between the ducts and lobules.
Within a tumour, there are distinctive holes between the cancer cells, making it look something like Swiss cheese.
Invasive cribriform carcinoma is usually low grade, meaning that its cells look and behave somewhat like normal, healthy breast cells. In about 5-6% of invasive breast cancers, some portion of a tumour can be considered cribriform. Usually, some ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) of the cribriform type is present as well.
