| Abstrakt: |
A 44 -year-old woman presented at the outpatient department with a chief complaint of swelling in the right breast. MRI showed a huge breast tumor accompanied by solitary enhanced masses in the pectoralis major muscle. After receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy, she underwent mastectomy (Halsted operation) and axillary dissection. Pathological examination revealed an E-cadherin-positive infiltrating lobular carcinoma (ILC), and the absence of residual tumor in the muscle was confirmed. In cases of solitary metastasis in the muscle, treatment selection is sometimes difficult. Further research is needed to determine whether surgery contributes to local control in cases of advanced ILC with muscle metastasis. |
