Objective: Rare coexistence of disease or pathology Background: Hereditary breast cancer arising in BRCA1-deficient patients is commonly diagnosed as invasive carcinoma of no special type (NST) with medullary features, while invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) appears to be significantly under-represented in BRCA1 mutation carriers. We report a case of pleomorphic ILC arising in a 28-year-old woman harboring a germline BRCA1 c.3756_3759delGTCT p.(Ser1253Argfs*10) pathogenic variant. Case Report: A nulliparous 28-year-old woman with a family history of BRCA1 mutation presented to the symptomatic breast clinic with a several-week history of a left 80-mm breast lump. Core biopsy established a diagnosis of a poorly differentiated triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) of pleomorphic lobular phenotype. Her clinical diagnosis was cT3, N0, M0, cStageIIB. The MDT recommended CT staging, MRI breast imaging and neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). PET CT imaging showed no evidence of distant metastatic disease. The patient had a good radiological response to NACT with a FEC-T carboplatin regimen. Post-NACT imaging showed a residual cystic mass and the patient underwent a mastectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy with plans for a delayed latissimus dorsi reconstruction following her adjuvant radiotherapy treatment. A complete pathological response was subsequently demonstrated without any evidence of metastatic disease. Conclusions: This case is the first report of pleomorphic ILC with a triple-negative receptor status and a complete pathological response in a BRCA1 mutation carrier. Our study expands the heterogeneous spectrum of TNBC and contributes to a better understanding of the molecular genetic landscape that characterizes invasive pleomorphic lobular neoplasia.
