Tall cell carcinoma with reverse polarity is a rare variant of invasive breast carcinoma with unusual histopathologic features. In 2019, 5th edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of breast tumors, it is in the group of rare and salivary gland-type tumors and is associated with favorable prognosis.

==Morphologic Features==


Put your text here
* Circumscribed nests of cells, many of which have fibrovascular cores. Foamy histiocytes are often present within the fibrovascular cores.  
* Occasionally true papillae and cyst-like structures with colloid-like material are identified.
* Epithelial cells are tall, may have nuclear grooves and intranuclear cytoplasmic inclusions.  
* The most characteristic feature is the presence of nuclei in the apical rather than basal pole of the cells hence the “reverse polarity”.

|EXAMPLE: BRAF and MAP2K1; Activating mutations
|''IDH2'' codon 172 mutations (majority are R172S, R172T; other mutations include R172G, R172W, R172I)
|EXAMPLE: MAPK signaling
|Carbon metabolism: citrate cycle
|EXAMPLE: Increased cell growth and proliferation
|Increased conversion of α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) to the oncometabolite R-2-hydroxylglutarate (R-2-HG). Increased levels of 2-HG result in hypermethylation of epigenetic targets and a subsequent block in cellular differentiation. Due to widespread hypermethylation, there is increased H3K27me3 nuclear immunoreactivity in tumors harboring ''IDH2'' R172 mutations.

|-
|EXAMPLE: CDKN2A; Inactivating mutations
|''PIK3CA'' mutations: H1047R most common
|EXAMPLE: Cell cycle regulation
|PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway
|EXAMPLE: Unregulated cell division
|Three most common ''PIK3CA'' mutations are H1047R, E542K, and E545K; ''PIK3CA'' mutations induce hyperactivation of the alpha isoform of the catalytic subunit (p110α) of class IA PI3K kinase. Mutations are often co-occurring with other drivers in ER-positive breast cancers and are associated with endocrine resistance. ''PIK3CA'' mutations are targetable with the PI3K inhibitor alpelisib in ER positive breast cancers; however, tall cell carcinoma with reverse polarity is usually ER negative.
