Primary sarcoma of breast are rare. Diagnosis by aspiration cytology is difficult due to nonspecific cytomorphologic features. An initial presentation with neurological symptoms due to metastasis of breast sarcoma to the brain has not been previously reported. Here, we describe a case of a 60-year-old female who presented with headache, dizziness and convulsion and was subsequently diagnosed with undifferentiated high grade pleomorphic sarcoma of breast with cerebellar metastasis.
原发性乳腺肉瘤较为罕见。由于细胞形态学特征不具特异性,通过细针穿刺细胞学检查进行诊断较为困难。此前尚未有因乳腺肉瘤转移至脑部而以神经症状为首发表现的报道。在此,我们描述一例60岁女性患者,该患者出现头痛、头晕和惊厥症状,随后被诊断为乳腺未分化高级别多形性肉瘤伴小脑转移。
