Case Studies on Breast Malignancy with Uncommon Histology: Report of Two Cases | Chapter 2 | Current Practice in Medical Science Vol. 6

The most prevalent cancer in the world, breast carcinomas, are a burden on the planet. The most prevalent histological type of breast cancer, IDC, has established management guidelines. However, due to a lack of guidelines and a dearth of cases, the care of rare histological subtypes causes doctors headaches. Here, we provide two rare examples of breast cancer: the first is mucinous breast carcinoma, which was treated with radical MRM and adjuvant chemotherapy. Two years after the end of the course of treatment, the patient is disease-free. Primary breast lymphoma, the second type, was attempted to be treated with combined chemotherapy. After a partial response was obtained, the patient was offered radiation therapy. However, the patient refused and passed away. These two instances show the importance of standardised guidelines for a rare subtype of breast cancer. With the resources at our disposal, our study's goal was to document the response to a rather uncommon breast tumour. The therapeutic success for these patients may be improved with more case series and prospective trials.
