We report a case of a 76-year-old woman with metastases to both parotid glands almost 25 years after mastectomy and chemotherapy for primary carcinoma of the breast. Immunohistochemical staining is invaluable in establishing the origin of metastatic deposits, in this case, expression of oestrogen receptors in a previously resected adenocarcinoma of the breast. The information can be used to target treatment accurately in selected cases of advanced malignancy.
我们报告一例76岁女性患者,在因乳腺癌接受乳房切除术和化疗近25年后,双侧腮腺出现转移。免疫组织化学染色对于确定转移灶的起源非常重要,在本例中,雌激素受体在先前切除的乳腺腺癌中的表达情况。这些信息可用于在选定的晚期恶性肿瘤病例中准确靶向治疗。
