Abstract

The WHO Histological Classification of Breast Tumors, published in 1968 has been completely revised. This second edition provides a recommended nomenclature, definitions and code numbers for both tumors and tumor-like lesions. It aims at promoting uniformity in recording and reporting diagnoses in order to facilitate international and other comparisons.
