Comments:
The tumor cells have abundant clear, pink, or amphophilic cytoplasm and vesicular nuclei with prominent nucleoli. Mitotic figures are rare.

It is a relatively indolent tumor with an excellent overall prognosis. Despite a 30% incidence of axillary lymph node metastases, the 5-year survival rate is almost 100%.
