Sonographic presentations of metaplastic breast cancers

Abstract: MPCB is a rare rapidly growing tumor. US findings included gently lobulated, complex mass lesion with cystic parts and posterior acoustic enhancement, representing necrosis or hemorrhage. Increased color flow signals and relative high RI of the feeding arteries were also seen.

“…Treatment guidelines for MBC are similar to those for invasive ductal carcinoma, despite the more aggressive biologic behavior of MBC (17). Our findings are consistent with past studies in that the majority of our patients had hormone-negative disease and approximately 25% had axillary LN involvement (4,10,12,(18)(19)(20). Despite this lower reported rate of axillary nodal involvement for MBC, the approximately 25% of patients that do have nodal involvement necessitates axillary LN evaluation in all MBC patients for proper staging and treatment (4,14).…”

“…AUS accuracy is influenced both by nodal disease burden and tumor biology (22). While previous reports have shown that AUS may detect LN abnormalities in MBC patients, the utility of AUS in this patient population has not been previously studied (18,19). Our evaluation demonstrated that AUS, with or without FNA of suspicious LNs, performed with a perfect sensitivity and excellent specificity (94%) for MBC patients.…”

“…Mais des signes comme l'hyperdensité de la masse et l'absence de micro calcifications peuvent être évocateurs à la mammographie [ 5 ]. L’échographie mammaire peut mettre en évidence des foyers de remaniements hémorragiques, nécrotiques ou kystiques, qui sont fréquents [ 7 ]. Ces tumeurs peuvent échapper au dépistage car d’évolution habituellement rapide [ 4 ].…”

“…Le curage ganglionnaire axillaire est recommandé, malgré leur caractère peu lymphophile [ 1 ]. Le rôle de la chimiothérapie et de la radiothérapie est encore discuté [ 7 ]. La radiothérapie adjuvante post-opératoire est peu indiquée car le traitement chirurgical conservateur est moins fréquent et les ganglions souvent négatifs [ 1 ], mais elle semble avoir un rôle essentiel dans le contrôle des récidives locales après le traitement chirurgical conservateur [ 10 ].…”
