The answer is C, E, B. Giant intracanalicular fibroadenoma occurs in older women and may undergo malignant transformation to a sarcoma.

The presence of malignant cells confined within ducts is a form of carcinoma-in-situ.

This histological variant of breast cancer is characterized by a lymphocytic infiltrate which may be responsible for slightly better prognosis.

Bleeding from the nipple (A) is seen in papillomas of the nipple ducts. Benign fibroadenomas often present as multiple small nodules (D) in the breast.
