Radiological and Histopathological Predictors of Survival in Neuroendocrine Differentiated Breast Cancer: A Comparative Analysis with NS-IDC

Although NEBC exhibits distinct MRI characteristics and a predominantly hormone-positive IHC profile, survival outcomes were comparable to those of NS-IDC. Notably, T2 hyperintensity on MRI was the strongest imaging feature associated with poorer survival, suggesting a potential role in future prognostic stratification. The modest sample size, prognostic interpretations should be viewed as exploratory. Larger prospective studies are needed to validate these findings.
