| Popis: |
A 38-year-old woman presented with a mass in the left breast. Biopsy of the lesion revealed invasive ductal carcinoma. Bilateral adrenal metastasis was detected in whole body positron emission tomography scanning. Needle biopsy of the left adrenal lesion proved infiltration of malignant cells from breast carcinoma. After eight cycles of neoadjuvant (preoperative) chemotherapy, mastectomy, bilateral adrenalectomy, and bilateral oopherectomy were performed. No further hormonal treatment was recommended due to the resection of both adrenal glands and ovaries. The patient is still followed without any sign of progression. To our knowledge, this is the first case representing multimodality approach to breast cancer with bilateral synchronous adrenal metastasis. Patients with oligometastatic disease may benefit from aggressive treatment including local therapies. © 2014 The Author(s). |
