Resumen:

Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a rare and aggressive subtype of locally advanced breast cancer (LABC). Its diagnosis is primarily clinical; however, a pathological confirmation of invasive cancer is required. The purpose of this chapter is to review the pathological characteristics of IBC; its pattern of expression of conventional biomarkers of breast carcinoma; other biological factors currently described to be involved in its highly malignant phenotype; and the emerging data, from novel approaches as expression profiling, on its classification and biological features. © 2013 Springer-Verlag London.
