    To explore the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic significance of casting-type calcification (CC) in patients with breast cancer presenting with microcalcification on mammography. Data on patients with invasive breast cancer who had mammographic calcification was retrospectively analyzed. The chi-square test was utilized to assess the clinicopathological characteristics of two forms of CC-related breast cancer. The examination of prognostic variables was conducted using Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses. A total of 427 eligible patients were included in this study. Chi-square analysis indicated that the presence of CC was associated with estrogen receptor (ER) negativity (P = 0.005), progesterone receptor (PR) negativity (P < 0.001), and epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2) positivity (P < 0.001); among these, the association was stronger with the CC-predominant type. After a median follow-up of 82 months, those with CC had a worse 5-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) (77.1% vs. 86.9%, p = 0.036; hazard ratio [HR], 1.86; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.04-3.31) and overall survival (OS) (84.0% vs. 94.4%, p = 0.007; HR, 2.99; 95% CI 1.34-6.65) rates. In COX regression analysis, such differences were still observed in HER-2 positive subgroups (RFS: HR: 2.45, 95% CI 1-5.97, P = 0.049; OS: HR: 4.53, 95% CI 1.17-17.52, P = 0.029). In patients with invasive breast cancer exhibiting calcifications on mammography, the presence of CC, especially the CC-predominant type, is linked to a higher frequency of hormone receptor negativity and HER-2 positivity. The presence of CC is associated with an unfavorable 5-year RFS and OS rates.
