Preferred Label : Intraepithelial Neoplasia of the Mouse Mammary Gland;
Alternative definition : MMHCC: A focal, non-invasive epithelial lesion composed of cells with atypical cytology
and/or organization and risk of progressing to malignancy. Biological proof that the
lesions are at high risk of malignant transformation depends on identification, isolation
and transplantation of the focus into the mammary fat pad. The term Mammary Intraepithelial
Neoplasia (MIN) has been recommended by the Annapolis Pathology Panel for all terms
under C500148 (focal, atypical mouse mammary lesions). These lesions are identified
because they are focal, cytological atypical and associated with mammary cancer in
adjacent tissue or glands.;
