ABSTRACT
Intracystic papillary carcinoma (IPC) of the breast is very rare, and it has a much better prognosis than the other types of breast carcinoma. We experienced a case of intracystic papillary carcinoma that we diagnosed in an 83-year-old-woman. MR imaging of the IPC shows a multicystic appearance with a subacute or chronic stage of intracystic hemorrhage. The contrast-enhanced MR imaging demonstrates enhancement of the cyst wall and mural nodules, and this modality proved to be successful for making an accurate preoperative diagnosis.
