title: [Breast cancer from the viewpoint of the pathologist].
abstract: Important criteria for histopathological evaluation in breast carcinoma are described. Of major importance is macroscopical evaluation. It is mainly the evaluation of the resection margins which still remains a clinically relevant problem for pathologists. New trends for intraductal carcinoma and evaluation of axillary lymph nodes are reported. An overview for prognostic factors is given.
