Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer related deaths in women and one of the most common cancers globally. The major obstacle in the management of breast cancer, especially at advanced stages, is metastasis. Metastasis in the advanced stages of breast cancer could decrease survival to approximately 5 years. The reasons could include lack of targeted receptors or chemotherapeutic agents for the management of advanced-stage breast cancer metastasis. The new emerging avenues for the management of this deadly pathological state include local manipulations like radiofrequency ablation (RFA), microwave thermotherapy, cryosurgery (cryotherapy), chemoembolization, radioembolization, breast surgery, or metastasectomy. Few single-institution reports showed improved survival in selected patients like those with oligometastatic stage IV breast cancer. The present review article focused on these emerging new multimodality treatment approaches for a possible efficient management. |
