Breast sarcoma is a very rare mesenchymal tumour and accounts for about 0.5% of the total breast malignancies. We present the case of a 69 years old female who presented with a painful breast lump. The report highlights the pre-operative tests and the operative approach adopted for this patient. Surgical resection is recommended, although debate exists about the extent of surgery. Neo adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy has been advised in certain cases but their role is still not clear. Further work is needed to standardize the treatment.
乳腺肉瘤是一种非常罕见的间叶组织肿瘤,约占乳腺恶性肿瘤总数的0.5%。我们报告一例69岁女性患者,她因乳房疼痛性肿块前来就诊。本报告重点介绍了该患者的术前检查及所采用的手术方法。虽然对于手术范围存在争议,但仍建议进行手术切除。在某些情况下,已建议采用新辅助化疗和放疗,但其作用仍不明确。需要进一步开展工作以规范治疗。
