Abstract
Lipid-secreting carcinoma is a rare type of invasive carcinoma of the breast first described by Aboumrad et al in 1963. We believe lipid-sec reting carcinoma to be a specific type of breast carcinoma and that it has to be differentiated from invasive lobular carcinoma. We report f or the first time the fine needle aspiration cytologic features along with the histologic and electron microscopic findings.
