| Popis: | A 47-year old-woman with inflammatory carcinoma of the left breast underwent a radical mastectomy. Chemotherapy was performed before and after the operation. About three years after the operation, the patient was diagnosed as having inflammatory carcinoma of the right breast. Following neoadjuvant chemotherapy, she underwent an extended radical mastectomy. The histological diagnosis was metastatic carcinoma from the left breast. We report our patient as a rare case because contralateral breast metastasis with inflammatory change developed frominflammatory breast carcinoma. Four years and two months have passed since the first operation despite the poor prognosis of inflammatory carcinoma of the breast. |
