We report a case of occult breast cancer. A 61-years-old woman underwent tumorectomy of right axillary mass. Pathological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma. Two years after, right axillary mass was discovered again. Wide local excision, axillary lymph node dissection and radiation therapy of the breast was performed. Pathological findings showed lymph node metastasis of breast cancer, or primary cancer of the axially tail of the breast. Ten months after second operation, she presented an axillary mass again. She underwent resection of the axillary tumor. The pathological findings showed lymph node metastasis of breast cancer. There was no evidence of primary tumor of the breast during the period. We suspected lymph node metastasis of occult breast cancer. Irradiation was administered to the right axilla, and she is receiving endocrine therapy. |
