HER2-positive grade 1 invasive carcinomas of the breast.

HER2-positive grade 1 carcinomas are uncommon, and more often have marked nuclear pleomorphism and lack oestrogen receptor and progesterone receptor expression compared with HER2-negative grade 1 carcinomas. A HER2-poitive result in the core biopsy was confirmed in 11 of 13 tumours that had repeat testing.
