Primary Osteosarcoma of the Breast: A Rare Case Report and Review of Literature
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Science and Innovative Research (IJMSIR) - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
Unlike skeletal osteosarcoma, primary osteosarcoma of the breast is extremely rare tumor. We report very rare case of primary osteosarcoma of the breast in a 50-year old female. Core needle biopsy of the breast lump was suggestive of metaplastic carcinoma with chondroblastic osteosarcoma component. Further immunohistochemistry confirms Chondroblastic Osteosarcoma-Extraskeletal. Treatment strategy should be considered carefully according to patient status. More data and further research are needed to develop an optimum treatment plan for this rare entity.
