Papillary carcinoma can refer to either invasive or non-invasive forms of breast cancer. Invasive papillary carcinoma accounts for only 2% of all breast cancer. Under the microscope, the cells of these cancers are arranged in small, finger-like projections. It is a rare cancer, occurring more often in older, non-Caucasian women, and is frequently associated with ductal carcinoma in situ.
