AB  - Inflammatory  breast  carcinoma  (IBC)  is  a  very  aggressive  disease  and  accounts  for  less  than  6%  of  all  breast  cancers  in  the  United  States.  It  is  characterized  by  a  rapidly  progressive  clinical  course  and  diagnosed  on  the  basis  of  distinct  skin  manifestations  that  are  often  confused  with  inflammation,  hence  its  name.  These  manifestations  include  erythema,  edema,  skin  nodules,  and  nipple  retraction.  A  characteristic  infiltration  of  the  dermal  lymphatics  with  tumor  emboli  is  often  seen  by  pathology  but  is  not  required  to  establish  a  diagnosis.
