Comparative histological analysis of British and Japanese breast carcinomas.
Histopathological analysis of several factors was made in an attempt to explain the difference in prognosis after mastectomy for mammary carcinoma in Japanese and British women. The higher age, lower grade of differentiation, and lower sinus histiocytosis and germinal center hyperplasia of the British cases may explain their worse prognosis.
