A rare breast tumor: Primary neuroendocrine carcinoma Breast cancer is the most frequently seen cancer in women; however, primary neuroendocrine carcinoma of the breast, which was defined as a separate entity in the 2003 World Health Organization tumor classification, is extremely rare. This entity, which is not well defined and has not been well researched, demonstrates a more aggressive course than invasive ductal carcinoma. As metastatic breast neuroendocrine tumors are more widespread and the treatment strategy is different, preoperative differential diagnosis is important. The basic diagnostic method is pathological examination. If a neuroendocrine pattern is determined by microscopy, immunohistochemical study of neuroendocrine markers should be performed. It is necessary to be vigilant in terms of synchronous tumors and metachronous tumors that may develop in the postoperative period, as the incidence of synchronous and metachronous cancers in patients with neuroendocrine tumors is higher compared to the general population. The case is here presented of a 73-year-old patient who presented with complaints of a breast lump, which was thought to be invasive breast cancer; as a result of an operation and pathological and immunohistochemical examination, primary neuroendocrine carcinoma of the breast was determined. With more advanced evaluation, no synchronous or metachronous tumors were determined.
